This is our first born son. "David Andrew Tournear". We called him Andy as not to confuse him with his daddy. His name
is David as well. Andy was born in Sandiego Ca. on July 3rd 1983. We were very proud of him. Little did we know he would have a short childhood.
You never know what the lord has in store for you. Andy's Dad is in the Navy so we traveled around quite a bit. In 1985 we moved to Camp Point Il.
Grandma Dorothea lived there at the time and we thought we were done with the Military. It turns out the civilian world was not
what we had planned for it to be. We were back in the Military and on our way to Pensacola Fl. We were there for 4 years. I really enjoyed living there.
At this time we had Daniel who was 1 and a 1/2 or so. Another was on the way. It was our 3rd son Dustin. Our second was Daniel. I worked at McDonald's for just over a year.
In jan of 88 i found out once again i was a mother to be. In sept. of 89 we had our 4th boy.
This is our Angel Andy

Here is a poem that Cindy Jo submitted to the Heavenly Playground support group. She is a very talented writer.
MOTHER...
Please know that I am happy and I long for your happiness too
Although your time seems long, for me its as if time never moved
And please, consider my heart, my soul, it does shine for you
As I think of the love we share, and hold for eternity too
The day I entered Heaven, I kept a part of you
And left for you a part of me, that will last your whole life through
When you join me, dear Mother, our reunion will be so dear
I'll run to you and find you, waiting for me here
Then for all eternity our Heavenly lives will ring~
With the peace and love abounding as the sweet and dear Angels sing...
September 1997

Here is another poem that Cindy Jo submitted.
Absolutely Beautiful
Death of a Child"
Sorry I didn't get to stay.
To laugh and run and play.
To be there by your side.
I'm sorry that I had to die.
God sent me down to be with you,
to make your loving heart anew.
To help you look up and see
Both God and little me.
Mommy, I wish I could stay.
Just like I heard you pray.
But, all the angels did cry
when they told little me goodbye.
God didn't take me cause He's mad.
He didn't send me to make you sad.
But to give us both a chance to be
a love so precious .. don't you see?
Up here no trouble do I see
and the pretty angels sing to me.
The streets of gold is where I play
you'll come here too, mommy, someday.
Until the day you join me here,
I'll love you mommy, dear.
Each breeze you feel and see,
brings love and a kiss from me.
Isn't this a beautiful poem?
I do not know who wrote it..
But it makes me think of what our Angels are saying to us..
