charlotte eve short passed away on the 23rd november 2005, age 16 months.
she was the only child of michelle and martyn short.
she passed away from pneumonia complicated by a hreat defect.
charlotte had been a special little girl even when her mummy was pregnant, she wanted to be here from 32 weeks, she managed to stay put and was born by c section at 36 weeks weighing in at 4lb 7oz.
she had little mouse feet, as she hadnt formed correct toes but they were cute as a button just like charlotte.
she also didnt have a joint in one of her fingers so that it was stuck up at all times, boy did she look like she had an attitude giving all and sundry the finger. lol.
she was such a cheeky monkey and had daddy wrapped around her little finger, just like a girl should have.
we are all a big family and a very close family and charlotte is sadly missed, she has left a gap that wont ever be filled.
love always

An angel with a book of gold,
Wrote a babys birth,
When jesus read the book he said,
To beautiful for earth.
as of the 1st march 2007 charlotte is a big sister to a beautiful little girl, emily grace. she was born a whopping 8lb 4 oz nearly double of charlotte.
she is healthy and happy, as are mummy and daddy. they will never forget charlotte emily will always know of her sister as she grows up and im sure charlotte will watch over her and keep her safe.
emily is now getting older and is looking more and more like charlotte everyday, with her cheeky smile.
charlotte will be very soon getting a little baby brother, her mummy and daddy are expecting baby joseph on the 4th september 2008.

I wasn't so each time he would pick me up again and support me a little longer. now i am ready i am ready to face my loss of you your little body in my arms at birth feeling each part of the tiny form you were, to holding your body in my arms when you had gone with god. i ready to face my loss all of it from the kisses to the smiles from the crying to the hospital to your birth and death. I am with you for ever and you are with me. i love you with my mind body and soul and you will always be mine. the child of mine you are.

happy birthday
hello my little princess. tomorrow would have been your 4th birthday. 4 long years since we held you in our arms for the first time. your little blue eyes looking up at us. your little high pitched cries and your soft breath as you lay in my arms soundly sleeping. these things will always be memories that we are so lucky to have of you; your first bath, your first smile, your first word and the first and only time you stood unaided. i love you with every inch of my heart and i miss you so much. tomorrow should be a day of celebration with your little sister looking up in awe of her big sister and you both hugging me and your daddy whilst waiting for your little brother to be born. but it will never be a celebration again. it will always be the day you should have been blowing out your candles but arent. you are still very much part of our lives and hearts and will always be our first child and our oldest girl. i love you so much
love mummy xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

A FATHER'S GRIEF
It must be very difficult
To be a man in grief
Since 'Men don't cry' and 'Men are strong'
No tears can bring relief
It must be very difficult
To stand up to the test
And field calls and visitors
So that she can get some rest
They always ask if she's alright
And what shes going through
But seldom take his hand and ask
'My friend, how are you?'
He hears her cry in the night
And thinks his heart will break
He dries her tears and comforts her
But 'Stays strong' for her sake
It must be very difficult
To start each day anew
And try to be so very brave
Because he lost his baby too
My Dad is a Survivor
My dad is a survivor
which is no surprise to me.
He's always been like a lighthouse
that helps you cross a stormy sea.
But, I walk with my dad each day
to lift him when he's down.
I wipe the tears he hides from others;
He cries when no one's around.
I watch him sit up late at night
with my picture in his hand.
He cries as he tries to grieve alone,
and wishes he could understand.
My dad is like a tower of strength.
He's the greatest of them all!
But, there are times when he needs to cry...
Please be there when he falls.
Hold his hand or pat his shoulder...
And tell him it's okay.
Be his strength when he's sad,
Help him mourn in his own way.
Now, as I watch over my precious dad
from the Heavens up above...
I'm so proud that he's a survivor...
And, I can still feel his love.
My baby
Go ahead and mention my child,
The one that died you know.
Don't worry about hurting me further.
The depth of my pain doesn't show.
Don't worry about making me cry
I'm already crying inside.
Help me to heal by releasing
The tears that I try to hide.
I'm hurt when you just keep silent,
Pretending she didn't exist.
I'd rather you mention my child,
Knowing that she has been missed.
You ask me how I am doing.
I say 'pretty good' or 'fine'.
But healing is something ongoing
I feel it will take a lifetime.
HI DADDY
Hi Daddy, its me,
Your baby girl in the sky.
Won't you tell me Daddy,
why does my mummy cry?
Doesnt she know I'm happy here,
Heaven's a beautiful place
Oh, how it hurts me, Daddy
To see tears streaming down Mummy's face.
Daddy, tell her I'm much better here,
Jesus fixed my heart.
But when I see mommy crying,
It just about tears it apart.
I know it hurt you both, Daddy,
When Jesus took me away.
But you and mummy remember,
We'll be together again someday.
I can't wait to hug you,
I never got the chance before.
When its time for you to come,
I'll be waiting at heavens door.
Then you'll both understand,
Jesus knew where I needed to be.
What a marvelous place to live,
Just wait and you both shall see.
Please let my Mummy know, Daddy,
That I heard every word she said.
And I remember her softly kissing me
As I lay cuddled in her arms.
Just one more thing Daddy,
Before I have to go,
I love you both very much
And just wanted you to know.
My lying mum
My mum, she tells a lot of lies
She never did before.
From now until the day she dies,
she'll tell a whole lot more.
She used to tell the truth a lot,
but now it doesn't matter,
I died and went to heaven,
her life is all a shatter.
Ask my mum how she is,
She'll say yes I'm fine!
She wants to beg 'Please help me
I cant find that princess of mine!
Ask my mum how she is,
she'll say 'I'm alright'
If thats the truth then tell me,
why does she cry each night?
Ask my mum how she is,
she seems to cope so well
She didn't have a choice,
you see, nor the strength to yell.
You think you know the feeling,
but this just cannot be,
For even though you loved me,
you didn't love as much as she.
She will smile and tell you,
'it's ok God has a plan.'
But she will turn away and cry,
cause she just cant understand.
Tell a joke and she will laugh,
but she is not ok
She wants to share the joke with me,
but it will not be today.
I watch her from here in heaven,
Will someone please take care of her,
and thus take care of me?
Some day you will feel better
'Yes I will' she lies.
She knows this will not happen,
Until the day she dies.
Ask my mum how she is,
She'll say, thank you good
she cannot tell you how she feels,
Oh I wish she could.
Ask my mum how she is
I'm fine, I'm well, I'm coping.
'for Gods sake mum,
just tell the truth,
just say your heart is broken.
Ask my mum how she is,
I'm well, I'm good, and you?
I'll shake my head in heaven
It simply isn't true.
She'll love me all her life,
I loved her all of mine.
But if you ask her how
she is, she'll lie and
say she's fine.
Her carnival is over,
She's stepped off the carousel,
But to save you feeling badly,
She'll say, thanks all is well.
My mum she's not gone mad yet
But oh so very nearly.
Don't ask my mum how she is,
Ask her how she is really.
I'm here in heaven,
I can not hug from here.
If she lies to you don't listen.
Hug her, hold her near.
On the day we meet again,
we'll smile and i'll be bold
I'll say
'Your lucky to get in here
with all the lies you told. this is from your daddy babe and maybeto help other daddies
