Memories...


Hi Immie


I’m making lasagne for dinner tonight, not the prepacket stuff from woollies. I will never forget how you screwed your face up when I suggested you eat that, as I was too tired to cook lasagna again. That look was enough to have me making lasagne for you at 10.30pm, anything to see that smile, and you excitedly shouting that you had found a love heart shaped piece of lasagna in your bowl.


I found the poem below for you Miss Imogen, many days it feels like yesterday you flew away peacefully, and other days it feels like a lifetime.


Can hardly believe it’s been six months, since we saw that smile, heard that laugh, and felt those hugs and kisses.


Sending it with all our love to heaven for you,


Extra squeezes, kisses and smiles


Mum, Dad, Kody and Ashton


P.S. Thanks for canceling after school trombone practise today, making sure my favourite t Рshirts were delivered today and letting it be Monday so Ashton could go to cr̬che, and I could float around the pool thinking of you beautiful girl xx your mummy xx

When Tomorrow starts without me

When tomorrow starts without me
And I am not there to see
If the sun should rise and find your eyes
All filled with tears for me

I wish so much you wouldn’t cry
The way you did today
While thinking of the many things
We didn’t get to say

I know how much you love me
As much as I love you
And each time that you think of me
I know you’ll miss me too

But when tomorrow starts without me
Please try to understand
That an angel came and called my name
And took me by the hand

And said my place was ready
In Heaven far above
And that I’d have to leave behind
All those I dearly love

But as I turned to walk away
A tear fell from my eye
For all my life I’d always thought
I did not want to die

I had so much to live for
So much yet to do
It seemed impossible
That I was leaving you

I thought of all the yesterdays
The good ones and the bad
I thought of all the love we shared
And all the fun we had

I bring with me our goodbyes
Your smile, your touch, your kiss
Your tender caring moments
Are the things I already miss

And when I thought of wordly things
I might miss come tomorrow
I thought of you and when I did
My heart was filled with sorrow

But when I walked through Heavens Gate
I felt so much at home
When God looked down and smiled at me
From His great golden throne

He said this is eternity
And all I’ve promised you
Today for life on earth is past
But here it starts anew

So when tomorrow starts without me
Don’t think we’re far apart
For every time you think of me-
I am right inside your heart.
