First Post

I never thought I would be the blogger type, but after the events of the past few weeks I can't help myself!  I want the world to know my Sweet Baby Paige!  This blog is also for me, I truly believe that it will help lessen my pain.  I know it won't take the pain away, but my hope is that through this blog I can share pictures of Paige and the overwhelming love I have for her.  I want to share our story and although my baby girl was only given 64 hours on this earth I want the world to know how much she has touched our lives! 

My Sweet Paige, Mommy and Daddy miss you more than you will ever know!  We think about you every minute of every day.  We know you are in the arms of Jesus looking down upon us and we pray that we can be given the strength to carry on.

  2. What a beautiful baby girl! We all miss her so much. I've learned so much this past week, especially the strength of Pat and Marissa - their strength and love leaves me speechless. As the "oldest" sibling, I will forever look up to my baby brother and his amazing wife...you two knock my socks off. Sweet Paige is so proud of her amazing parents - although way too short, your family is an example to all of us. We think about Paige every day, every hour, every minute. Love, Nick

  4. Such a sweet baby girl. I am so proud of you and Patrick. I watched my little brother grow up 20 years in just a few days. I know Paige misses her wonderful mommy and daddy just as much as we miss her. Your time with her was short, but Paige and her story will be touching the hearts of so many for a very long time.

  5. Hey Marissa and Patrick, My parents live across the street from Pat's mom and dad so I have known the whole family for years! Nick and I were very good friends back in the day! Please know that Paige is with you no matter where you are in life. I too understand your pain, I lost a daughter, Baylee when she was 6 months old...it is a pain that no one understands unless they have been there too! You can find me through Nick or Lisa...I am here if you need someone who has been there too! Marissa and Pat, you both are amazing and I will pray for all of you! Hugs to you all! Robyn

  6. Dear Marissa and Patrick - I've known Noretta for a long time, she sold us a couple houses, and learned of the heartbreaking news a couple nights after Paige met Jesus. Life can be difficult at times, but no parents should see a child pass before them. I want you to know you and your family have all been in my thoughts and prayers. I pray God grant you the three "C's" I've asked for myself in life...the Courage to face each day, the Confidence that life will get better again, and that Cheerfulness will once again enter your lives. Some things happen in life that are just not for us to understand, and this is certainly one of them. God bless and keep you and your families in His care. Sue Irvin

  7. Pat and Marissa,
    My name is Janet Kramer and I am an Aunt to Nicole Wieringa. Nearly 23 years ago I lost my baby boy Patrick Scot. He will ALWAYS be my baby boy. I know the greiving and sorrow you are feeling. He was born at 6mos. Perfect in every way. Just too small to take on this 'ole world. He only lived for 2 1/2 hours. Just know that God needs little Angels too. He will take VERY good care of her and you will ALWAYS have a guardian angel. Almost to the day Patrick was born God blessed me again with twin girls. They are now nearly 21 and are perfect! Now they will never take the place of Patrick, but know they are perfectly aware of their brother and we take time to remember his birthday every year. May God continue to heal you and bless you!
