A special request / Amanda
Hi sweet girl. The holidays are approaching fast and things here are quite stressful. Between work and home life things are crazy. Life is just very stressful right now. Somedays even getting out of bed is hard work. It takes all my strength just to make it through the day. I have a special request sweet one. Can you watch over my friend Michelle? She isn't doing very good right now. She's having trouble with her kids and is very unhappy right now. Life is rough in this home lately. Hopefully it's just pre-holiday stress. I miss you like crazy. Kisses to heaven baby girl. I love you lots. Close
Hi baby girl / Amanda
Hi sweet princess. I was just sitting here doing nothing enjoying my day off. It's nice to just relax every once and awhile. I'm always thinking of you and praying for your family. You are always in my thoughts. I miss you like crazy. Send me a butterfly kiss sweetie. Say hi to my baby cousin Tyler for me. Kisses and hugs to heaven for the baby angels. I love you!!! Close
Good Morning my sweet baby girl. I don't know why but i woke up thinking of you today.
Today is Kyle's birthday, make sure you send him a kiss from heaven. I cannot believe he is nine already!! Mommy is much too young to have a nine year old:)
I am missing you very much and wishing you were here. The next fews months will be tough, but I will make it through just like I always do. Stay close and send me some kisses.
Wishing you were here....I love you and miss you more with each day that passes!!
Grandma was just thinking of you and wanted to say Hi. It's a beautiful day here, the sun is shining and it's actually warm.
Mom and the boys are coming for a visit next week-end. Mom and I are going to bake some Christmas cookies.
You can help us and be with us in spirit. We should have lots of fun.
What's all the angels doing today? You have a new one up in heaven. My cousin Brent went heaven a few days ago. Watch for him.
Well my sweet angel baby, I have to go but I just wanted you to know I think and love you more each day. Stay close to Mom these next few months, they will be hard on her.
Fly with the butterflies. Hugs and Kisses to everyone in Heaven.

Amie,
We just wanted to send you something to let you know that we think of you and Jalyn often.
We know that Jalyn turned two on Saturaday - I am sure that was a difficult day for you and your family. You were all in our thoughts and prayers.
You are an amazing person who has been through more than anyone should ever have to go through. We love you and hope to see you all very soon!

Happy B lated Birthday / Erica Ritchie (Friend)
Beautiful Girl! Happy B- Lated birthday. If I could be at your party I would have given you a some barettes for your hair and a cute fall outfit that you could wear and everyone would say how even more adorable you were. How could that be possible rite?
I am sorry I am a few days late, I was trying to do this while I was alone and had some time to myself. I always cry when I come here to vist you. Sometimes tears of sadness, sometimes tears of anger, but mostly I cry that your mommy will make it thru. Shes truly so wonderful, but I know I don't have to tell you that!
I was just looking through some pictures to scrapbook and I saw the ones of your brothers and your mom when they came to visit at McDonalds. As always I looked at them and thought of you. I don't know why you were only here for such a short time, but I am so human that of course I just wanted you to be here. Can't help it, I am sure you are use to it since everyone wants you here.
So joyful day! A Celebration of a beautiful miracle that was here for such a short time, I don't blame him for wanting you back. My gift to you are my prayers and thoughts of love sent from here to you. I remember you Jalyn...How could I forget someone as beautiful as you.
Amie please know that at anytime that you want or need to talk that I am only a phone call away. I can't begin to express how I feel. Anger, sadness, but yet in a way contentment because I know and believe she is happy and safe if the arms of the lord. That and I hope Tyler will be there with her and watch over her. It's so hard for me to write because I don't know what to say or do to make you feel better. Just know that I love your little princess Jalyn and that I am here if you need me.
Even though your birthday may be over doesn't mean I haven't stopped loving you or thinking of you any less. You are always on my mind and in my heart and prayers. Every morning I wake up to a picture of you and a picture of my baby cousin Tyler who died of SIDS. His birthday will be on November 3. He would be 15 years old. Even though he died almost 15 years ago it still feels like yesterday. I can't say I understand what your mommy and daddy are going through or how much they are hurting but I do know what it's like to lose a very special baby. Your birthday in heaven must have been spectacular. In a way I wish I could have been there to celebrate with you. I hope Tyler was there. Tell him I still miss and love him also. Send a special message to your mommy and tell her anytime she wants or needs to talk she can call me. I have yet to visit your gravesite. Not that I haven't wanted to. I want to in the worst way but I'm afraid Jalyn. I'm afraid I'll go there and lose it emotionally. I can't believe you are gone. I miss you so much. Give your mommy a huge hug for me. Know that I will love you and will miss you forever. Kisses to the birthday girl.
Happy 2nd Birthday my beautiful Princess!! I cannot believe you are turning two! It seems like only yesterday I heard your first cry.
I hope you are having a great birthday in heaven. I am sure they gave you the biggest princess party heaven has even seen. I can just picutre you in a pink dress with pigtails in your brown hair. I can picture you singing along to Happy Birthday and then opening all of your presents with excitement. But that is all I can do is picture in my head.
Today was okay, until everyone went home and I was alone. Daddy came home for awhile, but I didn't get to see him. Auntie Jenny and Noel were here to scrapbook, so I kept busy for the day. But now, it's me and your brothers and I miss you more than ever. I just wish Daddy was here with me.
I know you are where you need to be, but my heart hurts so very bad. I can't do this anymore. I know I have to but god it hurts. It hurts so bad I can't breathe.
I know these next few months are going to be hard, they always are. please stay close and give me some signs that you are with us. I miss you so much!! I will love you and miss you until the day after forever!!
Happy 2nd Birthday my beautiful baby girl! I love you!!
Birthday wishes are being sent your way! Happy 2nd Birthday sweet princess. I miss you today just like always. I hope your birthday is extra special. Send your mommy extra hugs and kisses today. I know she needs them. I wish I could see you just one more time. Just one more hug and kiss. I know you're in a better much happier place but I don't have to like it. I just wanted to write and let you know how much you mean to me and how much I miss and love you. Kisses and hugs to a very special birthday princess. All my love.
Tomorrow is your 2nd birthday. I sure wish you were here to celebrate with us. You know Mom would have you dressed in pink and purple, ribbons in your hair and lots and lots of perfect pictures. It would be the party of all parties. And your mom would be smiling. But you can't be here with us because you need to be in heaven with the other angel babies. So we will have to settle for remembering the love you brought us and so many others in your short life.
Please be with Mom, she really needs you now. It's hard for her with moving and leaving the home you were in. This time of the year is so hard on her, and the upcoming holidays doesn't make it any easier. Stay close to your brothers and help them adjust. I'm far away from mom and can't be with her when she's having a bad day. Thank God for Aunt Jennifer and the closest she and mom have.
I'm a little upset with you. You only sent me one butterfly this Summer. What's up with that? Too busy for Grandma? Well my sweet Princess, I hope you have a wonderful birthday in heaven. Kiss Dylan,Jesse,Ralph and family and of course Great Grandpa. Watch over us, guide us and put a smile on Mom's face. She's so pretty when she smiles.
Well my sweet girl we did it. We moved into a new house. Should be happy right. Well I am....except I feel I left every memory I have of you in that house. I nkow I have you in my heart, but it hurts so bad not to be able to go into your old bedroom and picutre your crib and your little face looking at me.
I know you are with us here, but it's just not the same. Plus your birthday is coming up and Daddy's gone and I just feel so alone. I feel I back to square one and don't know where to go. I felt so good for so long, then just like that I hit a wall. I miss everyone so much. All I have here is your brothers and even though they are the most important people in my life....I feel so alone.
We had your memory walk on sunday. It was nice, hard but nice. It is so hard to see Kyle break down and get so emotional. I want to take his pain away, but I can't.
God Jalyn, how do I do this??? How can I just keep going on, year after year? You would be turning two on Saturday. TWO!! I can just imagine your face and smiel and hair and all the cute clothes you would be wearing. But instead of all that, I get to make a flower arrangement for you grave. Instead of baking a birthday cake, I get to put a balloon on your grave. And it sucks. I am sorry for being so angry lately, it just that I waited my whole life ofr you and 82 days was NOT enough.
I'm just having one of those days and feeling so very alone...I know you understand.
I love you so very much and miss you so much. Kisses to heaven for my beautiful princess.
Hi sweet one. I don't why but I woke up this morning missing you more then ever. Somedays it just doesn't seem real. I miss you so much and can't help but wonder if you were alive today what you would look like. I pray for you and your family everyday. You are always in my thoughts. I know fall is almost here but if you could please send me butterfly. I'll always cherish the brief time I was able to spend with you and hold you. Kisses to heaven sweet princess. I love you.
Loving you / Amanda
Well sweet one I did it. I moved in with my friend and her two kids. Talk about culture shock. Two teenage lovestruck kids and one bathroom. Yikes! Not to mention two cats that are not getting along very well. Guess it's a good thing that I work nights and school starts soon. It's hectic but fun and hopefully soon I'll be able to save some money. I'm missing you like crazy and thinking of you everyday. Kisses to heaven for a pretty princess. I love you Jalyn. Say hi to baby Tyler for me. Give him a kiss too. Close
Hi my sweet princess~ As you know little Taylor is in the hospital. I sit and think "I cannot believe what they are going through." Then it occurs to me that i do know...and I've been there. It really hits home and I cannot believe you are gone.
Most days are okay, but then something happens and I cannot even grasp the idea that you are not here. I know it's silly and I should be over that point, but I am not. I cannot seem to get over this hump. Now with Taylor sick, it's hitting me hard again.
Please stay close and send me some butterflies. I miss you and love you so very much. You are my beautiful princess and always will be.
Did you see what grandma bought? As I learned to ride my new Harley I'll need you to watch over me. Everyone names their bike so I named mine JJ, you guessed it, after you Jalyn Jo. I'm going to have Uncle Joe paint a pretty little purple and pink butterfly on the back of my helmet with JJ above it and "Fly with the Butterflies" below. That way you will be with me whenever I'm riding.
Jalyn we need some help and prayers for Taylor. She had emergency surgey last night. She's a real trooper for only six. As I was sitting with Auntie Margie all I could think about was your last night with us. My heart was breaking. The doctors said it will be awhile before she is back to normal. Thank God that Auntie brought her to the hospital when she did.
Well sweet angel, I have to get back to work. Stay close and know we all will love you forever.
Give Dylan, Jesse, Ralph and family, Great Grandpa a big kiss and hug for me.
Fly with the butterflies Princess Jalyn. Hugs and Kisses to Heaven XXXXOOOO
Missing you / Amanda
Hi sweet princess. I had a dream today about butterflies. All I remember about the dream is beautiful butterflies surrounding me. Was that your way of telling me that you are OK? I found the dream to be very peaceful and relaxing. Thanks for the awesome dream. Send me more butterflies. Missing you. Close
Butterflies/ Amanda
Hi sweet angel princess. The other night at work in the middle of the night i saw a butterfly. It almost landed on my shoulder. I thought of you immediately. Was that you? I miss you and think of you everyday. I hope you are enjoying the summer in heaven. Fly with the angels sweet one. Kiss my cousin Tyler for me. I hope the two of you have become friends. Watch over us and stay with us. You will never be forgotten. Love you lots. Close
Grandma needs a butterfly. No reason, just need one. I know you're busy with all the angels but we still need you too. Life is good but I still have that empty spot since you went away. When I was walking home at noon I was thinking how perfect you were and why this had to happen to your mom. She was sooooo thrilled when she knew you were a girl and it hurts me to see her hurt. I know we will be together again but it still breaks my heart from time to time. I just don't want you to think you are forgotten cause that is so not true. You will be our Princess forever and ever. I love you lots and think of you daily. Say hi to Dylan, I got a butterfly windchime that I'm putting on his grave. Kiss all the angel babies for me. Love to all.
