Elisha Lynn

Adam was so sweet and took Neya and me to see our baby sister's gravesite. It was so special to me, it has been a few years since I have been there, and there is such a peaceful spirit there. Over the years, Elisha has meant so much to me. I have felt her spirit near me time after time, and I am so thankful that she is my little sister.

I wanted to write a few of my memories about when she was born, while they are on my mind. 

I remember that day vividly, even though I was only a little girl. We stayed at Grandma Campbell's house, and all of our Aunts made me feel so special and beautiful. I remember wearing a necklace of my Aunt's and they let me take it to the hospital with me. Mom and Dad had talked to us and told us that Elisha probably would not live, so we were prepared for that, 

but I remember hoping that she would, and praying that she would. On our way to the hospital, they told us that she had passed away, and I was sad that I didn't get to meet her. 

But as soon as we walked into the room, and saw her and my Mama, I felt her spirit so strongly. I remember thinking, "I remember her. I know her." I wasn't sad at all, and maybe that was because I was a little child and didn't really understand. Or maybe it is because I was a little child, so I really DID understand. 

Over the years, during difficult decisions and lonely times, I felt her love and prayers lifting me. I love her so much, and have felt the blessing of being sealed to her. She has been one of my closest friends throughout the years. I love her and can hardly wait until we meet again. 

"Elisha, Elisha,

Some bright morning you'll greet me,

small and white, clean and bright,

you'll look happy to meet me.

Daughter of God may you learn and grow,

learn and grow forever.

Elisha, Elisha,

bless our family forever."

We love you, Elisha Lynn!
