^Angel^Moms


♥ Angel Moms ♥

We have shared our tears and our sorrow,
We have given encouragement to each other,
Given hope for a brighter tomorrow,
We share the title of grieving mother.

Some of us lost older daughters or sons,
Who we watched grow over the years,
Some have lost their babies before their lives begun,
But no matter the age, we cry the same tears.

We understand each others pain,
The bond we share is very strong,
With each other there is no need to explain,
The path we walk is hard and long.

Our children brought us together,
They didn't want us on this journey alone,
They knew we needed each other,
To survive the pain of them being gone.

So take my hand my friend,
We may stumble and fall along the way,
But we'll get up and try again,
Because together we can make it day by day.

We can give each other hope,
We'll create a place where we belong,
Together we will find ways to cope,
Because we are Angel Moms and together we are strong!

~What makes a Mother?~


What makes a Mother?
I thought of you and closed my eyes, and prayed to God today.
I asked, “What makes a Mother?” and I know I heard him say:

“A Mother has a baby, this we know is true.”

“But God, can you be a Mother when your baby’s not with you?”

“Yes you can”, He replied with a confidence in His voice,
“I give many women babies, when they leave is not their choice.

Some I send for a lifetime, and others for a day,
And some I send to feel your womb, but there’s no need to stay.”

“I just don’t understand this God, I want my baby here.”

 He took a breath and cleared His throat, and then I saw a tear.

“I wish I could show you what your child is doing today.  If you could see your child smile with other children and say:”

“We go to Earth and learn our lessons of love and life and fear.   
My Mommy loved me oh so much I got to come straight here.   
I feel so lucky to have a Mom who had so much love for me, 
I learned my lesson very quickly;   
My Mommy set me free.   
I miss my Mommy oh so much, but I visit her each day.
When she goes to sleep, on her pillow’s where I lay.   
I stroke her hair and kiss her cheek and whisper in her ear,
‘Mommy don’t be sad today, I’m you’re baby and I’m here.’”

“So you see my dear sweet one, your children are OK.   
Your babies are here in My home and this is where they’ll stay.
They’ll wait for you with me until your lesson is through,
And on the day that you come home they’ll be at the gates for you.

So now you see what makes a Mother, it’s the feeling in your heart.
It’s the love you had so much of right from the very start.”

~Thinking of all my special Mommy friends that are spending their holidays missing their loved ones.  

I send prayers of peace, love, & healing to those that are spending their Christmas in the NICU (neo-natal intensive care unit) with their new babies, in need of some extra tender-loving care.  

May our Creator watch over you, and shower you with an endless abundance of Nimkee-Blessings.  
Peace be with you,

~Gzaagin Nimkee~

~I can't believe how long's it been since I last laid eyes upon your beautiful face,
My arms long to wrap around you
Breathe you in with closed eyes and just hold on....

I miss you.........
in the darkness;
in the breaking of dawn over the eastern horizon
on the wings of a dove,
in the gentle flutter of butterfly wings;
the warmth of the gentle breezes upon my flesh
when the sun shines,
when the raindrops fall so gently
as they replenish the Earth.

I remember you in the darkened clouds
as I listen to the gentle rumbles through the Heavens.

I see your face in flashes,
like lightning as it crosses the sky
brief glimpses of you...........

I hear you in the silence
and never feel alone.

Gzaagin Nimkee....
forever in our hearts,
forever in my soul XXOO

~Walking in the Garden of Grief~

~The Garden of Grief is a lonely, desolate place at times.  It's a dark place of confusion, bitterness, anger......rage.....sorrow.

Welcome to the dead baby club----where membership can never be revoked and there are no reasonable prerequisites to get you signed up.  We're an elite group---the problem being that nobody wants to be here.  I have a story to tell, the real question is....."Do you really wanna hear it?"
It's not for the weak of heart, but I can guarantee that it's all true and it's a story that needs to be told.
Come in........sit down......let's talk.  

Get comfy cuz this could take a while.  

Welcome to The Garden of Grief.
