Last night, November 2nd, we lost our angel baby, Addyson Lane Barrett. She was three months old. She was born July 30th, with Hypoplastic left heart syndrome. She had half a heart. She had open heart surgery when she was only a few days old. She did wonderfully!! She was home from the hospital in two weeks! She was our miracle baby! God has heard all our prayers and answered "YES" to them, but it was a "Yes, for now. I have other plans." He said.
It hurts so bad to lose her! Our hearts are breaking in a million little pieces! Not only have we lost a beautiful life, but our hopes and dreams for this little girl. But she wasn't ours to keep. God allowed us to have her for three months. My family took such good care of her, but God is the ultimate healer!
She is home in God's arms....and her heart is healed and whole....while ours is breaking and longing to hold her. Someone once said we shouldn't say we lost someone, we know where they are.
Addyson, we know where you are and we will miss you and love you everyday until we see you again. Life will be hard without you, but you are in better hands now.
We love you, sweet baby angel Addy!
"He gathers the lambs in His arms and carries them close to His heart."
