Perhaps she was "given to you" at just the right time ~ to be able to spend her last last days here adorned with so much love and prayer, lifted up in peace.
Sending you, brian, and Emma much love and (wishing I could give you) many hugs, jen
We are praying for you as you go through this difficult time. We passed the news on to Julie and Chad so they can pray for you as well. May you rest in God's everlasting love and remember He has the perfect plan for your family. Love, Christy and Joe
Words are never enough in a time like this, but I want you to know that my my heart is broken for you. I can't even think about your family without a tear trickling down my cheek. I will be praying that our precious Father would wrap you all in His loving arms, so you might feel His comfort and peace.
Shana, my adored daughter, I never thought I would lose a grandchild this soon. Actually, two for you, isn't it. It hurts. More so for you, I know. Only occasionally do I read these comments. But on this sad day you certainly have an outpouring of love and support from your friends and family. "Crying with you..."...Indeed we are. I would like to thank all those who have commented for their comforting prayers and thoughts to help my daughter feel better. I'll see you soon, Shana.
We are so very sorry for the pain this is causing you and your family. Our prayer is that the Lord will bring you all peace and comfort in the knowledge that Jesus is holding you and your little girl in His strong arms. Crying along with you.....
Your family is in our prayers and we are crying with you. May you find peace in the fact that she is in God's hands now. God needed another angel to watch over all of us.
I'm sorry, Shana. I'm crying with you,too. Meskerem is being held close now. She's there with my Rahel. The words God spoke to me in a similar time: " 'Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? And yet not one of them will fall to the ground apart from the will of the Father...' I know her, I love her, I am holding her now..."
Shana, Came over from A Little Bit Pregnant, and was heartbroken to hear your news. She knew how much your family loved her and so was able to fly up faster and higher. We are sending you love and strength. xoxoxoxoxoxo
I am so sorry to hear this. I can't believe it. I don't know what to say besides, God has a plan. I will be praying for healing on your family's heart. Love, Tracy
dear shana, I am just an anonymous follower of your blog. At this moment I just want to tell you how deeply sorry and grieved I am for you and your family in your loss. My families prayers are with you.
Shana, I am so sad to hear of your news. Please know that you and your family are in our prayers and I hope that you feel peace in your heart. much love... Laura
I am so sorry for your loss. My heart is breaking for you and I don't even know you. 5KidMom sent me over to your site. I will be praying for you to have the strength to endure through this hard time.
Prayers for you and your family, and prayers of comfort in knowing she's snuggled up close to the Savior. I think Jen is right, she was yours for awhile for a purpose, so she could be loved deeply while she was here.
The death of a baby is like a stone cast into the stillness of a quiet pool; the concentric ripples of despair sweep out in all directions, affecting many, many people.
I know truly how you feel and may you know that you are not alone.
Dear Shana, Know that you are being lifted up in prayer even by sisters you have never met.
In my heart's sequestered chambers lie truths stripped of poet's gloss. Words alone are vain and vacant and my heart is mute.
In response to aching silence memory summons half-heard voices, and my soul finds primal eloquence and wraps me in song.
If you would comfort me,sing me a lullaby. If you would win my heart,sing me a love song. If you would mourn me and bring me to God, sing me a requiem,sing me to heaven.

I am just sitting here crying my eys out and I don't even know you! I am so sorry- you must be so heartbroken. I can't even imagine- life is so fragile and precious. I am mostly so sad you never got to hold her in your arms and that she never got to feel your kisses on her face. I know that she is content now and filled with joy...and I am praying for healing to your grief. Emily

Lord, surround this family with your perfect peace. Comfort their mourning hearts. Carry them through the days and weeks ahead. Let them ever trust in you.

Lord give them strength to get through the road ahead. In Christ name, Amen.

I know truly how you feel and may you know that you are not alone.
Take care
Dear Shana,
Know that you are being lifted up in prayer even by sisters you have never met.
In my heart's sequestered chambers
lie truths stripped of poet's
gloss.
Words alone are vain and vacant
and my heart is mute.
In response to aching silence
memory summons half-heard voices,
and my soul finds primal eloquence
and wraps me in song.
If you would comfort me,sing me a
lullaby.
If you would win my heart,sing me a
love song.
If you would mourn me and bring me
to God,
sing me a requiem,sing me to
heaven.

We are so very, very sorry. Jesus will babysit just for a while - until you are together forever. She is safe.
Lord, surround this family with your perfect peace. Comfort their mourning hearts. Carry them through the days and weeks ahead. Let them ever trust in you. Lord, surround them with people who will meet their every need. Hugs, food, shoulders to cry on, words of encouragement, faith when theirs waivers. Lord give them strength to get through the road ahead. In Christ name, Amen.
I can only echo everyone else....
Know that another feels your pain and more importantly, is praying for you.
