     Precious Little One 

    Precious, tiny little one

    You'll always be to me

    So perfect, pure and innocent -

    Part of Heaven's Family

    We dreamed of you and your life

    And all that it would be

    We waited and longed for you to come 

    And join our family

    We never had the chance to play, 

    To laugh, to rock, to wiggle

    We long to hold you, touch you now

    And listen to you giggle

    I'll always be your mother

    He'll always be your dad

    You'll always be our child

    The child that we had

    Now you're gone.......but yet you're here

    We sense you everywhere

    You're our sorrow and our joy

    There's love in every tear

     Just know our love goes deep and strong

     We'll forget you never

     The child we had but never had 

      And yet will have forever
