Home...

This week I received the most precious gift in the mail. My friend Ashley sent me a personalized CD of some wonderful songs of Nicole Sponberg.

The CD has Madeline's face on it and the words... A Hopeful Remembrance of Maddie Grace. It is absolutely precious and will be a forever treasured keepsake.

I absolutely love one of the songs titled "Home." Please take a few minutes and listen to it, it is such an encouragement. I also typed the words below.

Simply click the play button...

Enjoy! =)


What is it like to be held in the same arms that hold the universe?

What is it like to sleep on the chest of the King of Heaven and Earth?

When you open your eyes and look on the face of the giver of life, the author of grace... Do you know?

That your days here changed everything. You're missed here and will always be. But you left here, the greatest gift of all. Cause our hearts ache for home...

What is it like to breathe in and breath out, Heavens glorious life? What is it like to be robed in perfection, no reason to cry?

When you feel on your face your fathers kiss, His welcome embrace we prayed for this.

You should know...

That your days here changed everything.
Your missed here and will always be
But you left here. The greatest gift of all.
Cause our hearts ache for home...

So twinkle twinkle little star
We will keep you in our hearts
Twinkle twinkle little star
we will meet you where you are...

Your days here changed everything. Your missed here and will always be.
But you left here... The greatest gift of all...

Cause our hearts ache....

For Home....


I can't wait to the day when I will be home with you Maddie Grace. I miss you!

  1. I had never heard this song before! Awesome words, very touching and inspiring! Thanks for sharing.

    Sometimes we think we are home without them, but really, they are "HOME" without us.....yet. :)

    "...up above the world so high, like a diamond in the sky...."

    Missing our girls but so thankful for Heaven, and that Jesus made a way for us to be with them again! Love you

  2. I like the melody and the singers voice. The lyrics definitely hit "home" as in it sounds as though they were written about your maddie grace and other babies lost.
    My favorite lyric was this,
    "Your days here changed everything.Your missed here and will always be....ect"
    Thank you for sharing,

  4. I was searching for this song on the internet, and came across your blog. I was reading your sweet little girl's story. I have a baby daughter too. Do you mind if I ask...did they ever tell you what happened and what caused her to stop breathing? It's so scary... My email address is reginaac@hotmail.com
