Eight years ago on this day you made me a very special person - MOM. It seems like yesterday when I held you in my arms for the first time. Your bright twinkling eyes and long shiny black hair with the nurse saying "he is perfect!". From that special moment you filled our lives with joy, love and happiness. Today for the first time we are celebrating this special day without you physically being here but my little angel ,as Daddy said, you are with us and I see you as excited for your birthday as you always are. Wish you very happy birthday my son! This day has been and always will be the most special day for us. Love you infinity and beyond beyond beyond and more than never ending beyond.........

I have been thinking how to write about you our little angel and have been struggling...

You were part of our family and you always will be. The love & affection you have given us will stay forever in our hearts!

We have too many fond memories & stories to remember.

The numerous road trips that we took together and songs we sang together; 

our beach holidays & camping trips together will stay as a fond memory forever in our hearts.

The 'love fights' you used to have with your ‘Chachu’ but in the end he still was your favorite one!

The smile & excitement on your face on every Christmas morning was to die for.

The 'Lego Sessions' all the kids used to have with you every Christmas morning became a new tradition!

You were the most well behaved, patient & super intelligent kid I have met in my life.

The courage you showed during the worst times, you taught us all what life is all about!

I loved being your 'Sally' last year every time we played your favorite game 'Waking up cars'

We know you are the shiniest star in the sky and always will be!

Love you lots! Big tight hug to you!

Till we meet again……

Chachu & Chachi xoxoxo

Aarav...(my balugard forever)...uhhh where do I start...from day one when I first held you at the hospital...u created a very special place in my heart..the way you looked at me with tiny eyes, ur contagious smile ...uhhh --memories of you will keep on living in my heart. I still don't want to believe--that you left this world..why did you have to go? you were only 7yrs..to this day, my heart does not want to accept the fact you are not coming back. I have soo many regrets...I did not get to see you as much I wanted too..I did not tell you often enough..how special you were to us...how much I love you....I think of you everyday..
If you get one thing out of this msg, get this-- if you care about somebody, tell them! you never know if you will have the chance to do so again. Aarav, you're an angel. I will never forget you, ever!! love you my balugard oxoxox ...I will see you again!!

I came thru these poems ..."Last Wave" and "Hush my mom" -- it would be from Aarav to Sonali n Vikas babu

" I know you love me
But I've gone where
Rose Petals are my pillow.

I know you cared for me as I got weak
I've gone where I can run again.

I know you hoped my pain would ease
So I've gone where I can smile again.

As I wave goodbye for the last time..

I leave you with
My words of encouragement...
My memories.

I leave you with
My dreams
My warmth.

Smile with me..
As I go home to rest."


--HUSH
"Hush my momma, hush be still
I had to leave you, it was God's will
Hush my momma do not cry
For I am standing here, right by.

I have not gone for good you see
I am always right here and join you
But atlas, you cannot see me and all that I give
Hush my sweet mum, I am not dead, I still live.

When you feel down or very low
I will pick you up, as I did below
There will be joy and laughter in your heart
when you realise we are never apart
I am everywhere you go and everything you see
I am always with you.

You will sing and dance once more again
Bright sunshine will fill you, instead of rain
I live! I live~ I live I tell thee
Just a thought you need, to remember me.

In each flower, plant or bird you see
we are all part of this, you and me
So look at all things with gentle love and care
We'll meet again I am just over here.

Remember the good times never the bad
We loved and laughed together and shared the sad.
Remember how precious and dear you are to me
Remember I'm right here with you, if only you could see.

I love you and "I'll always be near"
Just whisper my name and I'll be right there..."

Our most brave superhero ever!!! Our hearts will always have a special place for you. Miss your infectious smile ...love you always!

I just got to meet Aarav now. He has a beautiful smile. I am sure he is in a better place now :) Remember him in your smiles.

We miss you Aarav, your beautiful smile, your kind heart, your wonderful imagination. We cherish the precious memories we have. You will always be in our hearts.

Miss you kiddo, I'll never forget how beautiful your smile is. The best part of my day was coming to see you and seeing you so happy that you would almost slide out of your chair.
You were our superhero, you were so strong and so brave every single day.
Even when I look at our pictures or videos I still keep smiling, and I know you are too. Love you forever and always

Love u son. U will always be wd us.

Aarav, you will be forever missed sweetheart.
Mihir still remembers the time he spent with you playing at home and on your birthday. You were a very dear friend.
We love you beta and will always keep your fond memories cherished in our hearts.

Aarav, you will always remain in our hearts and we will cherish the times spent with you. Last time I saw you, we were playing hangman and you were being mischievous:), I will never forget this last memory of you. Love you always.

I'll miss you, little buddy. Looking at that picture, I can still hear your voice. Probably complaining about food, as usual. You lit up every room you were in. I wish we had more of you but thanks for the 7 years. I'll see you later, little brother :)
