You are heavy on my heart as always and I am missing you so very much! You show me signs almost every single day, so I know you are here with me! I know you are so proud of Luke and all that we are accomplishing recently. I really wish you were here to be a part of it all but I know it is because of you and you truly watch over all of us who love you! Rest easy baby boy, mama is thinking of you ❤

My baby V I miss you literally every day of my life. I pray you are as happy as can be in Heaven. Your brother is amazing and keeps mommy on her toes. I will see you again and hold you so tight, I love you my baby boy❤

Happy Birthday Sweet Little Angel. You are loved and missed dearly. <3 I hope they throw you a birthday heaven style, with all the things that make you smile. Keep watching over your mommy and little brother. <3

We celebrated your 8th birthday sending you 8 red balloons up to Heaven. You are so loved and missed by so many and not a minute of the day goes by that I don't think of you. I love you sweet angel, Love always, your mommy

Happy Birthday Honey!

Hey baby angel! Mama misses you every second of the day and you are SO loved. Thank you for watching over us and blessing us! Xoxoxoxoxoxoxox. Poop :P

Lord Jesus I never met nor knew Valentino but feel I do as I know his mother Nancy and she talks a lot about him and posts his photos I pray Lord for her and V's little brother Luke that you will also bless them. Hold all of this precious family in your arms until the day that they can be reunited again. Loving you Jesus.

Life wasn't fair the day you left us. I often think of how you would be right now if you were here. There is not a day that goes by that I don't think of you. I miss you, yet I never was able to meet you. The impact you had in this world will be forever. I am very thankful to your mommy for keeping your wonderful spirit alive, for allowing us all to feel your presence and continue seeing your smile everyday. She misses you something fierce. You are her pride and joy along with your little brother, Luke. What a sweet little boy you are and forever will you be in our hearts. Lots of sweet kisses, Valentino. Auntie Delia will one day meet you too!

Missing you so very much V, we all went to the beach on your birthday and sent balloons up to you in heaven, hope you liked them! I love you my sweet angel xoxo

Hello handsome angel! How's heaven? :) Do you have a girlfriend?? :) Everyone that knows you misses you. Mommy especially. We love you and will celebrate you every year until we see you again. Keep sending us love baby. xoxo

Sweet Little Angel, I never actually got to meet you, but you and your family have touched my heart deeply. Although you were only here for a short time, the people who's lives you have touched, will never be the same. You are an amazing little miracle, and it's no wonder God called you home early. He calls all his really special Angels home early. As a mommy, it's really hard to accept though. I feel the pain in your mommy's words. She misses you so much. You will always be a part of her, for as long as she lives. Then when it is time, and she is called home, you will be reunited for an eternity. This little piece of time, that seems so long and painful, is only a fraction of a second compared to the time she will spend holding you, once you are reunited. Until then, You have my two little Angels to keep you company, and I will do my best to help your mommy through this painful time. Rest in Paradise Little Angel! We will meet someday. <3

Dear Valentino, I fell in love with you the first time I layed eyes on you because you were so handsome!:) I always tried to get your attention by saying hello but you would just stick your tounge out at me. The day I baby sat you was the best. I was suprised and my heart melted when you were so excited to see me and spend the day with me. You showed me your sweet side that day, thank you! Remember, we watched "Escape From Planet Earth," went to Target, the park, McDonald's and my condo to play video games and eat more apples!?:) I'm sure you can see, me and your beautiful, strong mommy have become great friends. I promise to always be good to her, as you would have. We all love and miss you. Hope you like the red balloons every year! Love, Auntie.

Sweet Valentino...
I only really saw u as an infant and thought u were the most beautiful baby boy ever....and as I watched u through pictures grow into a toddler and little man, I said, that is the most sweetest, silliest little boy ever....and now u are the most beautiful angel ever....I bet ur being so sweet and silly with all the angels and in the presence of Jesus. U have so much love still going on down here and we all can't wait until the day we can be with u!  Keep protecting ur mommy and baby brother! And could u say hello to my dad...he's up there with u too...just look for the man with the golf club...heehee....love u little boy!

My sweet angel baby boy, or should I say "Stinky"! I miss you so much that everywhere I go, every song I hear, every person I see, or food I smell...it reminds me of you and a memory we shared in the short time you blessed me with. You will always and forever be my "RED boy" and I am always and forever your "BLUE girl"! You not only touched and left an impression on those who knew you, you also saved so many children and adults that I am so very proud to say I am your mom and you are truly MY hero!! Your beautiful eyes, face, heart, humor and soul is forever with me and is what gets me through the days without you. I love you "to the moon and back" and will see you and hug you again one day...Love Always and Forever, Your Mom
