Dedicated to my son

Cody, love mommy!

My healthy baby boy

8Ibs 9oz

My dream come true being

a mommy!

You were everything

that I prayed for.

You were my dream come

true!

Then something

happened..

You were changing everyday

and getting bigger! Mommy

was so proud!

And then… the

unimaginable

I got the call… I heard the words..

You were stolen away from me,

you were no longer my feature…

You became my past and

memories.

For the next months

after that

I got to see you grow older

from other peoples pictures.

Months later after you were taken I got

to hold you for a few minutes for one of

the first times.

Now I get to see you twice

a week on webcam

And I get to have you back in

my arms a few weeks out of the

year. I long for these weeks to

come quickly just so I can hold

you again.

I wait patiently for the day

when Allah will reunite us for

good. Insha allah

• and when that day happens I will

hold you tight just as I always had.
