I found this poem via one of the Facebook groups I found after the boys passed away and fell in love with it...
"These are my footprints,
so perfect and so small.
These tiny footprints
never touched the ground at all.
Not one tiny footprint,
for now I have wings.
These tiny footprints were meant
for other things.
You will hear my tiny footprints,
in the patter of the rain.
Gentle drops like angel's tears,
of joy and not from pain.
You will see my tiny footprints,
in each butterflies' lazy dance.
I'll let you know I'm with you,
if you just give me the chance.
You will see my tiny footprints,
in the rustle of the leaves.
I will whisper names into the wind,
and call each one that grieves.
Most of all, these tiny footprints,
are found on Mommy and Daddy's hearts.
'Cause even though I'm gone now,
We'll never truly part."

I don't know how many people know this, but the boys' footprints and the image of footprints are what I use to represent them. My cremation necklace is a path of footprints. I bought another charm to go with it with a set of footprints on it. I also have their footprints tattooed on the tops of my feet. Their tiny feet mean the world. I always will treasure their tiny footprints.
