Alexia Rian Scott,

My baby girl, Sister Sue our very own Ally boo, how very much we all love you!
It wasn't supposed to be like this,
Your momma needs just one last kiss.
I'll hold you close so deep inside I know you would not want me to cry, I promise baby I will try. Rest now my sweet blue-eyed girl I know you are so tired of this cruel, cruel world.
In the arms of Jesus is where you will be, I really hope you will wait for me.
