Rest in Peace

There are no words to describe how I feel today. Maddycakes had the pleasure of doing the 1st birthday party for Carter a few months ago. Today I learned that he passed away. I met his parents at a baby expo that Maddycakes was an exhibitor. This particular family booked his 1st birthday party when the mom was still pregnant. The parents stayed in contact all year through emails and shared photographs of their precious son Carter. I finally met him on the day of his birthday party.

They chose a country Curious George theme for his birthday party.
Carter on his birthday. Please pray for his family. I am so sorry for their loss.
We go through life so often
Not stopping to enjoy the day,
And we take each one for granted
As we travel on our way.

We never stop to measure
Anything we just might miss,
But if the wind should blow by softly
You'll feel an angel's kiss.

A kiss that is sent from Heaven
A kiss from up above,
A kiss that is very special
From someone that you love.

For in your pain and sorrow
An angel's kiss will help you through,
This kiss is very private
For it is meant for only you.

So when your hearts are heavy
And filled with tears and pain,
And no one can console you
Remember once again.....

About the ones you grieve for
Because you sadly miss
And the gentle breeze you took for granted
Was just......... "an angel's kiss."
