We found out we would be blessed with our angel on Oct. 10, 2006. We learned we were having a boy on Jan. 22, 2007. This would be his Daddy's first son. We decided that we would name him after Daddy. We started to make plans, we had dreams of the way our son would be. We couldn't wait to bring him to this world with us where he belonged. The pregnancy was perfect. With my other two children I was sick all the time...but not with Anthony. Because of this unusually perfect pregnancy, my daughter Desiree would tell me that this was going to be my Angel Baby...We wanted him to be our angel on earth, not in Heaven. Anthony's due date was June 10, 2007. We were all so excited for his arrival, when this day finally came (6/3/07) it ended up being the worst day of our lives. Actually I can't say that because I did get to meet my son, my angel. Just not in the way I ever imagined. When we arrived at the hospital Anthony had no heartbeat...I felt him move earlier that morning, I thought his movement slowed down due to labor. I will never forgive myself for not knowing that my baby needed me. For not knowing these were his last kicks, his last breaths. After I gave birth to Anthony we got to hold him in our arms where he belonged. We hugged him and kissed him and told him how much we wanted him and loved him. The hospital had a photographer from an organization called, "Now I lay me down to sleep" come to take photos. I will cherish these for the rest of my life. They are real and they captured the moment perfectly. We also had Anthony Baptised at the hospital. We held him in our arms until we left the hospital on June 5, 2007. It was heartbreaking to leave the hospital without my son, one of the hardest moments of my life. When I let him go, I told him how much I loved him. I promised that I would not ever forget him, and that I would honor him. I would make sure that every one knew how special and important he is.
Anthony Jr. was taken to Heaven before he was born...June 3, 2007
