My dear precious Andrew,
You are missed beyond measure. I cannot understand why you are no longer here with us. My mind cannot grasp the fact that I will not hold you again on this earth. Why did God take you from us? You were so perfect and I cannot imagine a baby that would have been loved anymore than you. Today, baby, I will just pray that God will give me the mercy to make it through. I love you with all of my heart. Your brother Luke probably understood more than I did the day you were born. He just wanted to keep touching you. Although he was crying, he said, "Mom, we miss him so much, don't we?" He knew that even though we were holding you, that you were with Jesus. It does bring comfort to us in knowing that Heaven is your only home. It is all you will ever know. I know that one day everything will be clear as to why He chose you to be with Him. I just wish it were now. You were loved from the moment we knew we had you and we long for the day that we can have you in our arms again.
Love,
Your Mommy

Melanie, I came here from Angie's blog and just wanted to send you a big cyber hug. I am so sorry to hear about your little Drew.
I am praying for you now, may jesus hold you and your family really close through this time.
I have lost a child too and it is just a one step at a time kind of road. Blogging about it was a great help for me, on so many levels.
big HUGS...

Mel - I still have no idea what to say to you and Jeff, other than "I am so sorry..." I can't even begin to imagine the pain of losing a child. I know it all seems so mixed up and crazy right now, and I have no idea how long it will take for things to be "normal" for you again, but please know, that we love you guys and are praying for the peace that only Jesus can bring. You are an amazing family and are so very dear to us. We love you!
Melanie,
I am praying for you all through the day. I pray that you have strength and comfort.
Please know that we are here if there is anything that we can do.
We love you and your family,
Alicia
Melanie, I got to your blog from Tina's. We are praying for you through this difficult time.

I can't put into words how sorry I am for your family. Know that I am praying and thinking of you all often.
May the peace of our Lord be with you.
Love,
Kristin
Oh melanie
I'm so sorry.
Sweet Melanie, I am here from Angie's blog, too. My heart aches for your loss. I pray that you will find comfort moment by moment in your faith and with the love of the community of faith enfolding you and your family. Stay close.
With you in the arms of Jesus, Michal

Melanie,
I got your blog through Tina. The only comfort that I can give you is that Jesus is now holding your baby. He is holding Drew in His loving hands until the day you can be together again. I pray that you can feel the love for you and your family through our prayers.
God Bless,
Debbie

I just wanted to let you know that we are praying for you and your precious family. You are on my heart and brought to my mind often!
Isaiah 43:1-2
mel, I know i have told you this, but i cant usually say it with out crying, so i will just type it. I am so sorry you lost sweet baby drew. My heart hurts with you and jeff so much. He was so precious. When mom was here, i was really upset one day and she told me that God must make some babies just for heaven. I know that dad is taking good care of him and that he will still be your precious baby when you see him again. Until then God is going to heal your heart i promise. Know that i am praying for you all the time. today i am praying that Jesus puts you in a safe place ,and that you will feel him so strongly wherever you are "i will now rise up says the Lord, i will put in a safe place the one who longs for it". psalm 12:5b i love you mel! katie
