Keisha my love, In your life, we were much more than mother and daughter. We were sisters, we were friends. We would get angry with each other, but not for long. We loved each other too much for that. You have been sick all of your short life, but we still tried to live life to the fullest. Many nights i prayed that I would suffer instead of you, but the answer was always "No". You were my life, and I know I was yours. You always wanted to be like me, but I always told you, " you are already better than I". I looked forward to arguing about your first boyfriend, wearing make-up, mini skirts and dating in general. I've dreamed of the wedding you would have, the wedding dress you would wear, your first child..... Those days will never come now. I neve dreamed I would bury you, that any of my children would go on before me. A parent is supposed to die first. I know that you were God's baby first, and you are God's baby now. I had you in my care for 9 years. The love and the good memories are all I have left. They will last until the day I die. May you rest in peace in Heaven, my precious daughter. When I look at the stars at night, i see your face. Your loving Mother, Kim
