H A P P Y 40th B I R T H D A Y *L E A*
![]() Happy 40th birthday My sweet, sweet Lea, how I love you, only you can know. I love you to the deepest part of me in a depth that has no end. I feel you are always with me giving me courage to face this life without you. Today is your 40 th birthday, how I wish you were here to celebrate it with your family and friends. What do I write on a day like today? It's so hard to find the words that would make it perfect because I always want you to feel the love I have for you on any occasion. Your life on earth stopped at 33 years old and now you would have turned 40. How can I interpret that? All I know is that your friends turned 40 and it's just a beautiful transition to the next step in life to learn life lessons and to grow as a human being. I just know you had grown beyond your years and you were ready to face life challenges at any age. I love you my sweet child. You are in my heart and I will never let you go. ![]() I wish I knew what you are up to now, but I trust you are in a good and happy place waiting for us to join you some day. Daddy and I love you so much. We send you our love, beyond words, it comes from another dimension; a place we can feel you with us.. It is so immensely full of love and light. It was a beautiful sunny day, around 6:30 P.M. Daddy and I went to St Mary's hospital. It was during the hospital strike, the maternity ward was so full. You came into this world at 1:07 A.M. in the morning at 6 lbs 5 ounces. You were so beautiful, calm and serene with curly blonde hair. From the moment they placed you in my arms you snuggled right into my heart. Daddy and I were so proud. You were like a little angel sent from God to make our life so fulfilled. You changed our life with an everlasting imprint that will be alive in us forever. You brought us to that special place everyone looks for in life, you let us find our strength in love. When we brought you home we knew that the love we felt for you was the greatest love you can feel here on earth. Throughout the years you grew to be kind, loving and gentle. You cared about everyone you touched with your special gift of caring and unconditional love. To the love of our life we embrace you and we want you to know that you are and will always be our greatest treasure in this world. We miss you so much it hurts all the time. With so much love and admiration. Mom and Dad ![]() Lea my love To you I give my love, To you I give my heart, This is all I can do, To keep you alive with me. You are the sun in the morning when I awake, You are the tulips in full bloom, You are the blossoms of the lilacs in the spring, You are the flower buds and their beauty when they come to full bloom. You are the reflection of the sun in the clouds with millions of colours. You are the stars in the sky on a clear night. You are the moon shining in a beautiful blue sky. You are the rising of the sun and the sunset at dusk. You are the calmness that is felt by the chirping of the birds. You are the innocence felt when I see a child. You are the presence when I take a walk in nature. You are everywhere around me, I feel you near me all the time. Your Mom forever and always ![]() She Walks in Beauty BY LORD BYRON (GEORGE GORDON) She walks in beauty, like the night Of cloudless climes and starry skies; And all that's best of dark and bright Meet in her aspect and her eyes; Thus mellowed to that tender light Which heaven to gaudy day denies. One shade the more, one ray the less, Had half impaired the nameless grace Which waves in every raven tress, Or softly lightens o'er her face; Where thoughts serenely sweet express, How pure, how dear their dwelling-place. And on that cheek, and o'er that brow, So soft, so calm, yet eloquent, The smiles that win, the tints that glow, But tell of days in goodness spent, A mind at peace with all below, A heart whose love is innocent! ![]() [I carry your heart with me (I carry it in] E. E. CUMMINGS I carry your heart with me (I carry it in my heart) I am never without it (anywhere I go you go,my dear; and whatever is done by only me is your doing, my darling) I fear no fate (for you are my fate,my sweet) I want no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true) and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant and whatever a sun will always sing is you Here is the deepest secret nobody knows (here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud and the sky of the sky of a tree called life; which grows higher than soul can hope or mind can hide) and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart I carry your heart (I carry it in my heart) Mom & Dad ![]() How can anyone forget your birthday, Lea! Most of the birthdays we celebrated at your house turned out to be the hottest day of the year, just like today. No matter how hot and muggy the day was, it always turned out perfect. The heat didn't seem to matter, your mom tended to every detail to make everyone comfortable and well fed. You are always on our minds, Lea, and will forever remain in our hearts. love you and miss you forever Zia Antoinette, Zio Renzo Julia, Marco and Lisa ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() fifteenth anniversary - 2024 happy 48th birthday Lea - 2024 remembering our fur babies fourteenth anniversary - 2023 happy 47th birthday Lea - 2023 thirteenth anniversary - 2022 happy 46th birthday Lea - 2022 In Loving Memory of Maria - 2021 twelfth anniversary - 2021 happy 45th birthday Lea - 2021 eleventh anniversary - 2020 happy 44th birthday Lea - 2020 tenth anniversary - 2019 happy 43rd birthday Lea - 2019 ninth anniversary - 2018 happy 42nd birthday Lea - 2018 Why We Will Never Get Over It eighth anniversary - 2017 happy 41st birthday Lea - 2017 seventh anniversary - 2016 happy 40th birthday Lea - 2016 sixth anniversary - 2015 happy birthday Lea - 2015 fifth anniversary - 2014 happy birthday Lea - 2014 R.I.P.
