We lost Nathaniel when he was 17 years old, just a few days before his 18th birthday. He was a great joy in our life and our house is so sad and empty and quiet now. Our lives are forever changed--a part of us left when he did. There are no words that can express the grief we feel or how much he is missed. Our trust in God is all that carries us through these dark days.
We long to see Nathaniel again!

How will heaven be?
As far as I can see
It will have huge bells
And will be situated on clouds
It will have many golden wells
That will so often swell
Rain will be abundant
And the sun will shine all day long
Angels will play on the harp
The sweetest summer song
Music that will touch the heart
While those beneath will shed drops of sorrow
Little will they know what will happen on the morrow
But to them up above
As plain and clear it will be
As far as far as I can see
Yes there will be misty alleys
And lush green meadows
Fresh with the fragrant smell of spring
Winter will never be bitter
Summer never so hot
Autumn never so bare
And resources never so scarce
Food for all will be relished by all.
Grateful we’ll be as grateful can be
Mountains high and strong and brown
Surrounding that hidden land,
Beautiful and vast seas I see
There colour as blue as sapphire can be
And the white waves lashing upon the shore
Sitting on the flattened grey rocks
Who would not call it absolutely heavenly?
However it might actually be,
But can we still not see
There will lie behind this seen
A relieving feeling of bliss
For where not have we been
But is this not by all believed
That after one’s decease
This is the land of eternal peace
Where we all ultimately reach?

3 Year Angelversary
Nathaniel, you are gone 3 years today. I lit a candle for you today, and it was such a small thing to do for you. I guess you are having a big time in heaven. I hope they are not having trouble keeping you and all that energy in line. It comforts my heart that you are in a better place than this one--with a God that loves you even more than I do (if that is possible). I sure do miss you, and there is an empty place in my heart always--nothing seems to take that away!
Love and missing you always,
Mom
1,000 Day Angelversary
Nathaniel, you are gone 1,000 days today. We are now in the 4 digit numbers. Time is very strange to me now and it is like I live in a different world. I DO live in a different world because it is a world without you. It is almost 3 years since you left us and yet it seems only a little while ago that you were here. Life was so much more fun with you here. You knew how to enjoy life to the fullest--like you knew your time was limited. You would want me to be happy and not grieve the rest of my life--but I will grieve every day--I am Mom. I really long to see you again and anxiously await that glad reunion day in heaven!
Love,
Mom
Your 3rd Thanksgiving in Heaven
Nathaniel, today is Thanksgiving, and once again we have the sad task of trying to make this day as cheerful as possible without you. It is not easy! You loved Thanksgiving--the turkey and the green bean casserole were your favorite foods. I really, really miss you my son. I do my best because I just can't bring you back. It gives me great comfort to believe you are in a better place. Still, it is hard :(
I love and miss you, always and forever.
Love,
Mom
And God Said
I said, "God, I hurt."
And God said, "I know."
I said, "God, I cry a lot."
And God said, "That is why I gave you tears."
I said "God, I am so depressed."
And God said, "That is why I gave you Sunshine."
I said, "God, life is so hard."
And God said, "That is why I gave you loved ones."
I said, "God, my loved one died."
And God said, "So did mine."
I said, "God, it is such a loss."
And God said, "I saw mine nailed to a cross."
I said, "God, but your loved one lives."
And God said, "So does yours."
I said, "God, where are they now?"
And God said, "Mine is on My right and yours will be in the Light."
I said, "God, it hurts."
And God said, "I know."
Happy 20th Birthday!
Nathaniel, today is July 4, 2010 and you would have been 20 years old today. It is sad to me that you never even reached your 18th birthday--and you were looking so forward to it. We knew because of your diabetes that you might not live a really long time and we might possibly have to bury you some day, but we never expected your time to be so short. You have been a lesson to us--to enjoy today--and to live our lives for God, because, in the end, He is all that matters. We miss you and love you with all our hearts. Happy 20th Birthday and Happy 4th of July in heaven!
Love,
Mom and Dad
2nd Angelversary Tribute
Nathaniel,
We have now passed your 2nd angelversary- June 7, 2010 :( Ever who said the first 2 years are the worst obviously never lost a child. Some pain may be softer, but there is a part that will never, ever be fixed in this life! This month is hard. Please watch over us. We miss you my son :(
Love,
Mom
Missing You this Easter, Nathaniel :(
Nathaniel, this is your 2nd Easter in heaven...there is a HUGE empty spot at our church outings...no Nathaniel goofing around, fishing, and hiding Easter eggs for the little kids. There is a huge empty spot in our lives that won't ever be fixed this side of heaven.
We love you and miss you more than words can ever say...We believe you are in God's hands and in a better place and that is what comforts us more than anything. How I wish you were here!
Happy Easter, my son!
Love,
Mom
Angels Above
Precious moments are all to few,
Things would be different, if we only knew,
What the future might hold...
What the future might bring...
God's in charge, it could be anything.
God lends us his children to call our own,
to love, to teach, to provide a home.
Will we have a day to remember?
Will we have a lifetime to dream?
Our little angel was only eighteen.
Treasure each moment God allows you to have,
Choose battles wisely, and learn how to laugh.
It could be today...
It could be tomorrow...
God's in Charge, he'll ease our sorrow.
Memories become sweeter as the hurt goes away,
They occupy thoughts several times a day.
Remember the fun...
Remember the love...
Little angels in heaven looking down from above.
Miss you son!
Nathaniel, you were gone 600 days yesterday. I am so sad about it...we are making it but you are missed beyond words. I don't believe this will ever be fixed here. I'm sure it won't be, but I long for a new life in a better place that includes you! I cannot hardly wait to see you again. We love and miss you so much! Trying to keep the faith,
Love,
Mom
