Katelyn Renee Shumaker

To my sweet and precious Katelyn, Happy St. Patty's Day!

I love you and miss you immensely!

  The Four Leaf Clover                 

A four leaf clover...

A treasure...priceless and rare,

Like my child in Heaven above...

Now in God's tender loving care.

Each leaf...a meaning...a part of my grief

One leaf for strength, one for memories so dear,

One leaf for peace, and one for my faith in God above.

Each represents a part of my life...

My child in Heaven...forever missed and forever loved!

The first leaf on the clover...

Stands for strength to make it through the day...

From morning to night...darkness to light...

With God's help each step of the way.

The second leaf on the clover...

Stands for peace that only God can bring.

A peace that restores my mourning heart...

Smoothes the edges of the pain...

and help me learn to begin to live again.

The third leaf on the clover...

Stands for memories that I will always hold dear.

Her spirit will shine on in the memories left behind...

Although time may pass...she will never dissappear.

The fourth leaf on the clover...

Stands for my faith in God above

Believing with all my heart in what I cannot see...

Knowing we will meet again

By the Golden Gates in Heaven above.

Until then I'll keep my memories

Tucked deep inside with love...

Along with my four leaf clover...

My treasures from Heaven above.

A clover? A Treasure?

Blessings from above?

All sent from Heaven...with Gods everlasting love!
