Sweet little Angel Maddy Marae, that we waited for day after day...
Filled with anxiety and happiness as we prayed each day...
Waiting for so long for you to become the little angel she so deserved...
Years of despair and she was finally going to have hers....
Dreaming year after year, of what she would name you, and what color hair you would have....
The excitement grew and grew to the unknown, all we asked was for you was to be known...
Healthy and Beautiful is what i assured her you would be, and we did not prepare for what we were about to see...
Still to this day it is so hard for me to say, i was there holding her hand waiting for you to make your land,
here on this beautiful earth, so excited for you to meet her....She is such a great mom and you my precious little angel...
It's so not fair to see my sister go through that worst moment and fear in every new mom's tear when she see's her angel..
For the first time, waiting anxiously for the first cry.....

Only my sweet Maddy Marae, there was no Cry, and we yelled out WHY!
For something so prepared for and longed for to be taken away within seconds is not fair.
With no explanation, there we sat holding our sweet little angel in our lap, 24 hours of labor, sweat and fear..
You were no longer here.....

Forever and always, you will be near....
Close to my heart we will never be apart....
Please never forget what and how much you meant..
Much happier now as i am sure you are, Maddy Marae your'e my shining star...
