In Memory Of Amie

Amie was born with cerebral palsy 20 years ago .

It is only a year ago that I met Amie, we moved to a different town and our neighbors across the road (now our best friends) Jim and Judy Lee were very kind to us and welcomed us to the town and the neighborhood...I got introduced to Amie she was in a wheelchair couldn't walk or talk .. but understood everything you said to her .. She could answer you with her eyes, up was yes sideways was no, it took awhile before I got the hang of that, but I did.. for some reason I still don't know why.. Amie liked me, this crazy Dutch woman *S*.. And you have heard about people growing on you well with Amie that was different it was an instant love for this girl you couldn't help yourself that is the person she was ..Big smiles always happy .. lots of times up to no good ..LOL.. and anything that could go wrong like if you tripped or bumped yourself well you made her day, she wouldn't stop laughing.

As you can tell most of the color is purple it was her favorite color , purple wheelchair, slippers, shirts, pants, stuffed animals even purple nail polish and watch. *S* Amie in a lot of ways was a very lucky girl two wonderful parents that did everything for her took her to Florida three times and to Universal Studio's, Disney world , Cedar Point (big amusement park) etc.. Amie and I did have a very special bond even though it was for such a short time .. but she taught me some very important things, Unconditional Love , Courage, Strength and to be happy with every day you get. This is the reason for me making this page in her memory. Amie Thank You for all your love you have given me ..

Your up in heaven now with the angels where you belong because to me You were an angel and I thank God for the time he gave me to get to know you. You will always be in my heart until we meet again ..

Love you forever sweetie .. Ria xxxxxxxxoooooooo

The child asked God, “They tell me you are sending me to earth tomorrow.

But how am I to know how I am going to live there being so small and helpless?”

The child further inquired, “ But tell me, here in heaven I don’t have to do anything but sing and smile to be happy.”

God said, “Your angel will sing for you and will also smile for you every day.

Again the child asked, “And how am I going to be able to understand when people talk to me if I don’t know the language?”

God said “Your angel will tell you the most beautiful and sweet words you will ever hear, and with much patience and care, Your angel will teach you how to speak.”

God said, “Your angel will place your hands together and will teach you how to pray.”

God said, “Your angel will defend you even if it means risking its life.”

God said. “Your angel will always talk to you about me and will teach you the way to come back to me, even though I will always be next to you.”

At that moment there was much peace in heaven, but voices from Earth could be heard and the child hurriedly asked, ”God, if I am to leave now, please tell me my angel’s name.”
