We are here today to celebrate the life of Malachi William Bevan.  He was with us for a short
period of time, but impacted our lives so deeply.  Malachi was a special gift from God as all
children are.  When I first found out we were pregnant I wanted to tell the world. 
 
Right from the start I knew we were going to be blessed with a son.  God really placed it on my
heart to call him Malachi.  The name was unique, but i loved it.  After some research I learned
that one of the meanings for that name is messenger of God, now I realize how profound that name
really is. 
 
We couldn't wait for the arrival of our son.  Our first visit to the midwife we were able to hear
little Malachi's heartbeat and what a strong heartbeat that was. There were so many times that he
would say hello by kicking.  I remember the first time Aaron was able to feel the baby: Aaron put
his ear to my tummy and the baby kicked him, that was such an exciting time for us.  We couldn't
wait to see what our little boy would look like, "was he going to have brown or red hair? What
colour of eyes will he have?  How big will he be"  We had so many questions, but had to wait to
get the answers and of course i am not a very patient person.  I think this was God's way of
teaching more patience.
 
Even though we only had little Malachi for a short time, it was a wonderful nine months. God gave us
the opportunity to get to know our son and to become parents.  I do not know why he was taken from
us, but we take heart that love is all Malachi really knew.  He was the greatest gift that God
could have ever given us.  He will be missed deeply.


Below is a poem that we felt really spoke to us

We planned and waited so long for you.
then after all the times of tests and temperatures,
at last you began to live in me.
I listened to your speedy heart and
Imagined who you would be.
As I snuggled up against you daddy,
You kicked him "hello" that first time

Every decision was made with such great care;
What color to paint, a quilt to sew,
A rocker for late night feedings,
Even an outfit for your dedication
You waited patiently an extra week
So every detail could be complete

We headed for the hospital, hurting,
but happy that your time had finally come
We'd finally meet our little boy
We did everything right, breathing,
Relaxing, pushing, panting.
How were we to know that when last we snuggled,
Your kick to Dad meant "good-bye"

God Bless xxx

A little star for God’s collection
A little Boy, absolute perfection
A life on earth, not meant to be
No tears or smiles for all to see
No playing with your baby toys
Or growing up with other Boys
Our hearts are broken, split in two
But we will remember you. XXXXXXX

Angel Wings
A precious angel slipped away, no one heard a cry.
No time for Dad and Mommy to sing me lullabies.
My time with you was much too short. I had to leave too soon,
But love had joined us as I grew inside my Mommy's womb.
It wove it's way within our hearts, in all our hopes and dreams,
Until the very purest love became my tiny wings.
Although I could not stay with you, I knew right from the start,
That once you felt your angel's love, you'd keep me in your hearts.
I'm just a little angel but my time was not in vain.
As dark clouds that surround you give way unto the sun,
My precious parents you will see that any heart will sing,
If only for a moment it is brushed by angel wings.
