The snow came down so quickly, covering the world in a white blanket. The snow was a bright white, pure white. It was white like the beautiful dressed you wore. You were an innocent angel, lying there at peace.
Your last bed was lined in yellow cloth covered in bright ladybugs. And a message was engraved above you, from an angel to a ladybug, asking her to carry a kiss to your mother. I'm sure every time she sees a ladybug she will feel your kisses.
They brought you down the aisle, covered in flowers. Your grandmothers and aunt read beautiful letters from your parents and siblings. I could picture a little girl giggling, and see a little princess dancing. "First just one shoulder, and then the shimmy..." The music was so sweet, and made so many people smile.
On the lawn, there was peace. Beautiful balloons were released with messages to you in Heaven. Children and adult smiled as they watched them against the white sky, floating up to you. It was a magical sight that will live with us forever.
Today was perfect, except for one problem.
The casket was too small.

Nothing sticks with you quite like the funeral of a child. I'm sad for your day.
