Fly with the Angels
Today I am asking that my blog friends say a little prayer for a family that I know and grew up with (and lived right next door to). One of their daughters lost her daughter last night after a long battle with a brain abnormality. She was 3 years old and her name was Amberlynn. She spent most of her life in and out of hospitals, only learned to walk long enough to become too weak to ever walk again, and missed all of those play-dates, days at the park, and careless fun that you think about when having a child. This family truly believes that Amber is in a better place, that she has earned her wings, and that she is happier than what she ever was here on earth. I had the pleasure of photographing Amber twice in her lifetime, and I am so glad that I did. Go fly with the angels, Amberlynn.

What a beautiful gift from God. It's amazing how He works and I am in awe of how he touches our lives with sweet moments such as a child. She is now in heaven with Jesus and it sounds like her parents have a strong faith and someday when it's God's time they will be with her again...except this time she will be healthy and can play with never being tired. I will keep them in my heart and prayers that God will comfort them while they go through the process of healing from her going home before they do.

ReplyDeleteOh she is so beautiful. I can't even imagine losing a child. Keeping this family and their beautiful little girl in my thoughts and prayers. As you've said, may she fly with the Angels and find much greater peace and comfort. Thanks for sharing this story and the beautiful pictures you took to capture such special memories.
