Memorial website in the memory of your loved one
     

This memorial website was created in the memory of our sweet baby girl, Hailee Sorum who was born in Minnesota on August 15, 2005 and passed away on August 29, 2005. 



I
wanted to write a little about Hailee's life and her death. It all started in January when we found out we were going to have another baby. We were so happy and told Hanna she was going to be a big sister. She couldnt wait. The pregnancy was going GREAT I wasnt sick and had no problems. I loved feeling my little peanut moving around inside me.We found out in the spring that it was a girl. We thought that was GREAT , We painted her room bright pink and got out all of Hannas cute little baby clothes. Life was good and we couldnt wait to welcome our new daughter to the world. Aug. 15th I woke with really bad pains, I woke up Eric and said "I think its time". We got to the hospital at 3:30 am. They didnt do much for me except give me pain medications and wait till the clinic opened at 8 am to do an ultrasound. By that time they saw that there was a problem and rushed me for and emergancy c-section. When they opened me up they saw that I had a Uterine Rupture. Our poor sweet girl was expelled from her mommas uterus. She was without oxygen. They did many brain scans and told us that she had no brain activity. We decided to have the breathing tube removed when they told us Hailee would never open her eyes, never hear, never suck, or eat ,never walk or talk and never play with her big sister Hanna. Eric and I made the decision to hand our precious baby over to Jesus. It was the hardest thing we ever had to do. We held our hailee almost non stop after they removed the breathing tube. It was the best and the worst time in our lives. We cherish the memories that Haliee gave us. The Death of a child (no matter the age) is a pain that cant be explained. It just shouldnt happen and its not Fair. The only thing that gives us as parents peace is that our children are in heaven and one day we will hold them again.

           The Littlest Angel

I'm only a small child, not much do I know.
But God holds my hand as I look down below.
I'm here with the father in the most wonderful place
yet I can't feel much joy when I see your sad face.

Your heart has been broken, I can see from up here
as you struggle along and you wipe every tear.
If only I had words I could send you today
that would tell you I'm home and I'm really okay.

Heaven is so beautiful with sparkles and white wings
and the angels are teaching me so many things.
I'll grow and mature in this heavenly land
while holding on tightly to the Father's soft hand.

So don't grieve for me now, but find peace in you soul,
and know God has finally made your little one whole.
And even if you can't seem to understand "why",
please know in your heart that our love didn't die.

He tells me that just for a time we must wait
and then I can meet you at Heaven's front gate!
So for now, know I love you in my own special way
and we will meet again on that glorius day.

TheCord

We are connected, my child and I,
  by an invisible cord not seen by the eye.
It’s not like the cord that connects us at birth,
this cord can’t be seen by any on earth.
This cord does its work right from the start,
it binds us together, attached by the heart
I know that it’s there, though no one can see
 this invisible cord, from my child to me.   
  
The strength of this cord,
 it’s hard to describe,                  
 it can’t be destroyed, it can’t be denied.    
It’s stronger than any cord man could create;
it withstands the test, can hold any weight.
And though you are gone and you’re not here with me,
the cord is still there though no one can see.
It pulls at my heart, I am bruised, I am sore,
but this cord is my lifeline as never before.
I’m thankful that God connects us this way,
a mother and child…Death can’t take it away.

Blessed Are They That Mourn

For They Shall Be Comforted.

Matthew 5:3-5














WHEN GOD CALLS CHILDREN HOME                 
 
To dwell with him above
We mortals sometime question
The wisdom of his love,
For no heartache compares
With the death of one small child
Who does so much to make our world
Seem wonderful and mild.
Perhaps God is tired of calling
The aged to his fold,
So he picks up a rosebud
Before it can grow old.
 






















I said, "God, I hurt."













And God said, "I know."













I said, "I cry alot."













And God said, "That's why I gave you tears."













I said, "Life is so hard."













And God said, "That's why I gave you loved ones."













I said, "But my loved one died."













And God said, "So did mine."













I said, "It's such a great unbearable loss."













And God said, "I saw mine nailed to the cross."













I said, "But your Son lives."













And God said, "So does yours."













I said, "Where are they now?"













And God said, "My Son is by my side and your Angel is in my arms....."




















 I'll Be There

Daddy please don't  look so sad,  momma please don't cry.
'Cause I'm in the arms of Jesus and He sings me lullabies.
Please, try not to question God, don't think He is  unkind.
Don't think He sent me to you, and then He changed His mind

You see, I am a special child, and I'm needed up above.
I'm the special gift you gave Him, the product of your love.
I'll always be there with you, and watch the sky at night.
Find the brightest star thats gleaming, that's my halo's brilliant light.

You'll see me in the morning frost, that mists your window pane.
That's me, in the summer showers, I'll be dancing in the rain.
When you feel a little breeze, from a gentle wind that blows,
That's me, I'll be there, planting a kiss on your nose.
When you see a child playing and your heart feels a tug,
That's me, I'll be there, giving your heart a hug.
So daddy, please don't look so sad, and momma don't you cry,
I'm in the arms of Jesus, and He sings me lullabies.

"The mention of my child's name may bring tears to my eyes, but it never fails to bring music to my ears. If you are really my friend, let me hear the beautiful music of her name. It soothes my broken heart and sings to my soul."

















MY CHILD

On the day God took you 
I thought that I would die
I wondered where the time went?
I asked alot of whys??
With people all around me
I felt alone inside
From all their words of comfort,
I couldn't seem to hide,
I thought I might be dreaming
That I'd wake and find you here,
I thought "This can't be happening."
As I wiped another tear.
On the day that you were laid to rest
My heart broke yet again,
I wondered if the pain would end,
But mostly, I wondered when??
It's hard to be without you,
At times the days seem long,
Sometimes I just sit crying,
When there's really nothing wrong.
I wish we'd had more time,
Before your life was done.
I hope your resting peacefully,
My precious one
