Robert Vesma was born sleeping on the 17th of December 2006,weighing 5 pounds and 2 ounces. My
beautiful Baby Bob spent only a few hours with us but they were precious moments. They are a
wonderful and heartbreaking memory I will forever carry with me in my heart.
Bob was a very active little man. My husband Daniel would tap my tummy and Bob would kick back.He
had a good strong kick and we all enjoyed him playing tag with his dad all over my belly. It is a
memory I now cherish.
I enjoyed to do less active things with my son. I loved to read to him and sing, even though I was
horribly out of tune and at times that got a good kick.
Bath time was special as his older brother, Corbu who at the time we lost Bob was 2 and a half,
would balance little bath toys on my tummy. Then we would laugh as Bob kicked them off. Wonderful
moments I spent with my sons, I will will always remember them.
Corbu at the time did not really understand what was happening but he knew that Bob was gone. As
time has gone past he has no memory of Bob or what happened at all.We have made a memory box for Bob
and put in all cards,photos and gifts given. When Corbu is older he can look through it as we do
now. We will share with him, the love and memory of his little brother.
The funeral was the most heartbreaking and difficult thing I have ever done. My husband did not have
the strength to really do anything, so I did it. My husband is not a man of faith so I respected
that and did not have a religious service.
I did a small eulogy, I shared how how much I loved my son and would miss him greatly and read a
poem (featured at the bottom) which I had always loved since I was a teenager. But now... now it has
so much special meaning. My sister read two verses of scripture, for me and those who did have
faith, even if it was just a little.
Then I had to leave my little boy, in that small little white coffin. Trying not to think of my
precious little one being creamted, trying not to think that really is it, he is gone forever. I
cried and cried, I still do.
I cried again when we collected his ashes. They were so few,such a little little amount of ash. It
is so sad that my beautiful baby boy amounted to barely enough ash to fill a egg cup.
So sad.
So very sad.
It made me cry so hard.
We were suppose to scatter Bob's ashes on the hills over looking our home town. When we collected
his ashes and had to actually do it, I just couldn't do it. So for now Bob is home with us. When the
time is right and I will know when that is, we will go out as a family and at sunset.......
The memory of Bob is in my heart is bigger than any mountain, my love for him larger than any ocean.
Yes, thats what I hold on to.
Bob was my constant companion for 34 weeks. Now that he is gone I miss him more than words can say.
I love you my darling son, always and forever
My son sadly taken but always remembered.
REMEMBER me when I am gone away,
Gone far away into the silent land;
When you can no more hold me by the hand,
Nor I half turn to go, yet turning stay.
Remember me when no more day by day
You tell me of our future that you plann'd:
Only remember me; you understand
It will be late to counsel then or pray.
Yet if you should forget me for a while
And afterwards remember, do not grieve:
For if the darkness and corruption leave
A vestige of the thoughts that once I had,
Better by far you should forget and smile
Than that you should remember and be sad.
During this dark and difficult time I have found Sands (Stillbirth and neonatal death charity) to be
a huge help.
I thank everyone there and the lovely friends I have made for all the tears and joy they have shared
with me. xxx

We go through life so often
Not stopping to enjoy the day,
And we take each one for granted
As we travel on our way.
We never stop to measure
Anything we just might miss,
But if the wind should blow by softly
You'll feel an Angel's Kiss
A kiss that is sent from Heaven
A kiss from up above,
A kiss that is very special
From someone that you love.
For in your pain and sorrow
An Angels kiss will help you through,
This kiss is very private
For it is meant for only you.
So when your hearts are heavy
And filled with tears and pain,
And no one can console you
Remember once again.....
About the ones you grieve for
Because you sadly miss
And the gentle breeze
You took for granted
Was just....."An Angel's Kiss"
i also lost my little boy at gloucester he was in scbo an died at 10 weeks old on the 14th feb 07 if you want to chat feel free to email me
you an your angel are in my thoughts
We have shared our tears and our sorrow,
We have given encouragement to each other,
Given hope for a brighter tomorrow,
We share the title of grieving mother.
Some of us lost older daughters or sons,
Who we watched grow over the years,
Some have lost their babies before their lives begun,
But no matter the age , we cry the same tears.
We understand each others pain,
The bond we share is very strong,
With each other there is no need to explain,
The path we walk is hard and long.
Our children brought us together,
They didn't want us on this journey alone,
They knew we needed each other,
To survive the pain of them being gone.
So take my hand my friend,
We may stumble and fall along the way,
But we'll get up and try again,
Because together we can make it day by day.
We can give each other hope,
We'll create a place where we belong,
Together we will find ways to cope,
Because we are Angel Mums and together we are strong!
A beautiful tribute to a beautiful little boy
God bless little Bob, may you rest in peace and play happily in the clouds above with Shadha and your angel friends.
Sending you lots of hugs and angel kisses.

So sorry for your loss of your beautiful baby boy. My dh and I also lost our sweet angel, Ashleigh Brooks, on December 29. We have a six year old dd who also feels the pain in her heart. I hope you and your dh find peace and know that there is a reason for Baby Bob's life and passing and that he truly knew your love for him and still does. Wishing you and your family gentle days and peace. Hugs to you.
Bob's due date
Today was the day that Bob should have made his appearance into the world.
But he is gone, you see he wasn't able to stay long. Bob came and went in what seems to be twinkling of an eye but the memory, the love for him will live forever on.
