April 6,2004 was a very special day for us. We had TWINS and Katelyn was first born by a minute and then Dylan was born. What a blessed day that was! We were proud parents of a healthy baby girl and baby boy. Katelyn was 5 lbs. 15 ounces and Dylan was 5 lbs. 13 ounces. Boy, big brother, Andrew was so happy too. He couldn't wait to play with his sister and brother.
We were so nervous, because we knew that it wasn't going to be easy. It was very hard some days, but we got through it all, especially with all the love and support from our family and friends.
This website is dedicated in honoring Katie and remembering the short life she had. Our precious Katelyn will always be remembered for the love she gave and will always be forever in our hearts.
I will never forget you my precious Katie. I will always remember your cute smiles, laughter, and sweet baby talk. I miss holding you and the way you would always suck your thumb. You would hold on to your blanket and put your head on my shoulder and go to sleep. I really miss that. Me and daddy had talked about how we were going to stop you from sucking your thumb. We knew it was going to be hard, but we were willing to try. I really miss when you would sing your favorite songs "The Itsy Bitsy Spider" and "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star". I miss everything about you, my angel. I love you always.

Remember Me
By: Josh Groban
Remember
I will still be here
As long as you hold me
In your memory
Remember
When your dreams have ended
Time can be transcended
Just remember me
I am the one star that keeps burning so brightly
It is the last light to fade into the rising sun
I'm with you whenever you tell my story
For I am all I've done
Remember
I will still be here
As long as you hold me
In your memory,
remember me
I am that warm voice in the cold wind that whispers
And if you listen you'll hear me call across the sky
As long as I still can reach out and touch you
Then I will never die
Remember
I'll never leave you
If you will only
Remember me
(Remember me)
Remember
I will still be here
As long as you hold me
In your memory
Remember
When your dreams have ended
Time can be transcended
I live forever
Remember me...
Remember me...
Remember me...
I thought of you with love today
But that is nothing new,
I thought about you yesterday
And the days before that too.
I think of you in silence
I often speak your name,
All I have are memories
And your picture in a frame.
Your memory is my keepsake
with which
I'll never part
God has you in his keeping
I have you in my HEART
Katelyn, Dylan, and Andrew
It was so hard to get this picture taken. If anyone with kids know that it is difficult to get the cooperation you need. But, I am thankful to have gotten this picture taken. It was the last picture of the three kids together. What beautiful kids! I do thank God for the last pictures I have of Katie. I can tell Andrew and Dylan miss you so much ! I love you more than words can saymy baby girl! Your memory will be cherished always.
YOU ARE IN EVERY SUNRISE
My child
You are gone from me physically
But I see your face.
You are in every sunrise
In every new bloom
In every new season.
I can hear your voice
I can hear your laughter
I remember it all so well.
It warms my heart
To think of you always
With wonderful memories.
My journey has been long and uncharted
I am amazed at where I am in this journey...
A new life, a new joy, a new love
But what I wouldn't give to have you back with me.
I know in my heart that can never be.
But it doesn't stop me
From wishing...
You are not forgotten
You will never be forgotten
I will see to it.
I will build memorials
So that others will learn and understand
Who you are, what you became
Through nutured love for so few years.
Our lives are shaped
As much by those who leave us
As they are by those who stay.
Your spirit is all around me
I can feel you
I can sense you
Stay with me always
Help me to put back
The pieces of the puzzle.

~This poem I got from the amazing grief support group I just joined. I found them on the main website I started this memorial from. They are a wonderful group of people showing their love and support to each other. I am grateful that I found them and hope it will guide me through this journey without my love, Katie!!~
