Her First Christmas In Heaven

Christmas In Heaven

'Tis Christmas in Heaven

What a beautiful sight!

It's my first one here;

Everything is all right.

I've met all our dear ones

Who preceded us here;

The reunion was lovely,

An event full of cheer.

And tonight we'll all gather,

In reverence we'll kneel,

For the Babe in the cradle

Up in Heaven is REAL.

I think of my family

that I left behind

And I pray that your Christmas

Is as blessed as mine.

Please shed no more tear,

For my soul is at rest,

Just love one another;

Live life to its best.

Yes, it's Christmas in Heaven,

So I've heard them say.

Yet, Christmas in Heaven

Happens every day.

Gracie,

   You're home baby girl...and I'm on my voyage there.  I wish it weren't this way.  I wish we were celebrating your very first Christmas here with us.  Life isn't fair and I'm learning to be okay with that.  I thought I was going to be just fine today because tonight is not about my hurting and missing you...it's about our Savior's glorious birth and the reason why He was sent here.  I don't want to overshadow that, but my heart aches.  I often wonder if you'd be pulling yourself up, what your smile would look like, or what your little voice would sound like.  I pray today, and always, that you are worshiping and praising the One that saved you from the wrath of hell. I know you are going to have an amazing Christmas celebration and I'm so happy for you!  I miss you, sweet girl! Merry Christmas! 

Love,

Mama
