Misty's Story
 
 
  
I have a little story I would like to share with you.
Its about two Angels in my life.
One was my Grandmother and one is my Son.
I am the youngest grandchild on my mothers side of the family.
I was also the last grandchild to offer an addition to our family.
On March 23, 1998 I was blessed with a beautiful little boy.
When I say little, I mean little.  He only weighed 1 Lb.14 oz.
and was 14 inches long.
 
 
 
 
 
During my pregnancy, my Grandmother (I call her"Mammaw")
became very ill.  In December of 1997 she had open heart
surgery with 5 bypasses.  All I could think about was,
that what if she didn't make it to see her great grand child.
Well she made it through her surgery but stayed weeks
in the hospital.  She never fully recovered from her surgery,
she didn't remember us at times.
You see, Mammaw was my heart.
She lived in the house next door to mine,
when I was growing up.
You could always count on Mammaw.
Well, Mammaw made it to see my little boy.
She even got to go to the hospital once
to see him.
 
I can still remember her words "I believe that's the
least one I ever saw".
She even made it until we came home.  I can
remember her holding him for the
First time. It's all on tape.
That's one I'll never part with.
 
After that, my lttle boy had hernia surgery on June 19, 1998.
During that time, Mammaw was in the hospital.
He made it througth surgery with flying colors,
while Mammaw slowly slipped away.
 
My son grew and grew and got better everyday,
but Mammaw just seem to get weaker and weaker.
 
If you could go back and add up, my son gained every ounce,
my mammaw lost . 
On June 21, 1998 I gave up my Mammaw.
God had a better place for her with him,
but in return he gave
me another Angel to keep "my son". 

This poem is dedicated to my two angels.

NEW BEGINNING
 
AN ENDING STARTS A NEW BEGINNING
THERE ARE TIMES IN OUR LIFE
WE WONDER HOW GREAT HEAVEN CAN BE.
BUT WE NEVER REALIZE THAT GOD GIVES US
A LITTLE PIECE FOR ALL OF US TO SEE.

EVERY DAY GOD GAVE US A PEEP OF HOW
BLUE THE SKIES COULD BE.
EACH NIGHT HE GAVE US TWO SHINING STARS
FOR EVERYONE TO SEE.
HE SHOWED US PATHS THAT BLESSED
SO MANY HEARTS
HE GAVE US MEMORIES THAT  WILL NEVER DEPART.
 
EACH TIME MAMMAW GAVE US A LOOK.
GOD GAVE HER ANOTHER PAGE IN HIS BOOK.
SHE LOVED US IN SO MANY WAYS .
THAT GOD GAVE US THOSE EXTRA DAYS.
SO ALWAYS REMEMBER HOW HAPPY MAMMAW IS TODAY.
THAT GOD GAVE HER LITTLE PIECES OF HEAVEN
TO SHOW ALONG THE WAY.
 
GOD SENT US AN ANGEL 89 YEARS AGO.
NOW ITS TIME FOR HER TO GO.
SHE'S SPREADING HER WINGS TO FLY,
AS GOD SENDS ANOTHER PIECE OF HEAVEN FLOATING BY.
 
HE TOO WILL SHOW US THE GREAT BLUE SKIES,
BE OUR STARRY LIGHT AND GIVE US NEW PATHS
TO WONDER EVERY DAY AND NIGHT.
AS YOU SEE EVERY ENDING STARTS A NEW BEGINNING!

MIRACLES DO HAPPEN and I am a true believer,
every time I hold my little grandson,
I see a miracle. I'm a believer.
