I am in no way excusing his behavi= our but try and not be too hard on him. >> I thought I would > be very emotional seeing her name on a marker at the cemetery, but I wa= s actually very calm and at peace. This is one of the few times that I feel= =20I have actually done something for her.<< And I am sure that Leslie is very proud of the stone you gave her.Have yo= u taken any photos that we could see? hugs Mandy, mum to Matthew(10),Charlotte (9) and my two angels Gareth (t18 ^i^= 14/11/99)and Dominic (CH ^i^ 23/7/00) and my little pumpkin seed EDD 19 A= pr 2004,England,UK http://www.geocities.com/baby2angels2000 Some stop chasing rainbows,for they think they aren't real, But they aren't something you can touch,they're something you must feel..= ." =20 Building ___ooOOoo__ Rainbows =20 www.trisomyonline.org =20 Families Helping Families On-line =93This e-mail is sent on the Terms and Conditions that can be accessed b= y Clicking on this link http://www.vodacom.net/legal/email.asp " Building ___ooOOoo__ Rainbows www.trisomyonline.org Families Helping Families On-line
