I’m fairly certain we met at exactly the right time. To know you and love you is magical and I’m also fairly certain you’ve helped me become a better mother just by experiencing your love and the love so many have for you. We’re bringing a baby boy into the world and I can only assume that was your touch, adding another wonderful Boyle Boy to world. We love you and certainly miss you 💙

My first born child
John Michael. My first born child. I’ve loved you from the moment I knew I was pregnant. I always knew you were my Angel, and through the years I’ve heard from so many people that they knew you were an angel as well. You are in my thoughts daily and in my heart forever.
