A Peek Into Heaven
By Callie Sanders Thornton
Just one little peek into heaven,
Is all I'm asking for today.
I just want to know how she's doing,
And heaven seems so far away.
Is she playing on the clouds with angels?
Is she laughing and running today?
Does she miss me?
I guess only she knows.
Oh why does heaven seem so far away?
If you just let me look for a moment,
To catch a glimpse of her sweet smiling face,
I promise I won't try to take her,
I know, she's in a better place.
just one little peek into heaven,
Is all I'm asking for today.
I just want to know how she's doing,
And heaven seems so far away...

My cousin Kaelin read this poem at Ellie's funeral.

Remembering February 22nd, 2010
A morning in the playroom....
Despite Ellie's intense hatred of tummy time (even on the boppy), she managed to fall asleep while Max ran wild around her.
Creepy open eye sleep....
That's better.
Of course her paranoid mother had to flip her over and make her sleep on her back. Yes, I was sitting right next to her- but paranoia is often stronger than reason. In my defense, she had reflux...
After a catnap Ellie was up for a little time on the playmat...
Guess it's time for another nap...
