Goodnight Sun

Goodnight Sun

Goodnight sun

Saying day is done…

Since you’re way up high

In God’s great big sky,

Will you please smile upon

My baby girl up on

Abba Daddy’s lap

Getting her nice long nap…

Give her a warm embrace

Till I can see her face…

Goodnight sun

Saying day is done…

We will wait upon

God to send His Son

Saying Day is done…

But life in Heav’n’s begun!

Goodnight Father-Spirit-Son,

Blessed Three-in-One,

Until my race is run,

May Your blessed will be done…

Until our Day is done,

And Your final Victory’s won!

Goodnight Baby Girl

Sitting atop my world…

Goodnight sun

Saying day is done…

Poem – Goodnight Sun – Angie Bennett Prince – 8/7/09

Goodnight Moon

Goodnight Moon

Goodnight Moon

And your red balloon

Goodnight Baby Girl

All...on top of the world...

Goodnight kisses

Blown without misses

"Muah-whoosh" kisses

Full of memories and wishes...

Combing your curly hair,

Hugging like a teddy bear,

Reading Goodnight Moon,

...And now,

you are there...

Now can you see th’ cow

jumpin’ over th’ moon?

Mommy loves you so!

Though she’s down below,

She wants you to know,

"I love you so—

I miss my baby girl so..."

Goodnight Moon

And your red balloon—

Goodnight Baby Girl

All...

on top of this world…

Merry Katherine’s first complete phrase as a tiny tot was an anguished cry:

“My balloon up in the sky!”

when she accidentally let go of her red helium-filled balloon as we got out of the car…

Now, she is rejoined up high in the sky with God, Jesus, and

the Holy Spirit, and

possibly with…her long-lost little red balloon!
