Jack Vader


Hi Buddy

As you already know, your Mom and I brought you home yesterday. Originally we were gonna have you stay with Winnie the Pooh until the nice weather comes and you can go flying, but I thought to myself, you have enough Winnie the Pooh stuff and I know you would have wanted to hang with Darth Vader until then. Jack, some people might not like this or find it in bad taste, but if you were anything like your dad (and we know you are) you would just look at them and tell them to get over it:)

Talk to you soon

Love ya Buddy

This is gonna sound kinda strange buddy

Hey there Jack

It's your Dad here

This is gonna sound kinda weird but i'm gonna go and pick you up tommorow . When you left us, they changed you from a human form into this really cool dust, so your mom and I are gonna keep you (The Dust) with us until the weather gets really nice and then were gonna gather all of our friends together and your family and were gonna say nice things about you and then let you go into the wind (You can just float up into the sky and fly around if you want to). So I got this idea watching one of your Mom's favourite T.V. shows Miami Ink , I'm gonna get a new tattoo that has your name written in Chinese (杰克逊) with mabey some cool flames around it, but what i'm gonna do is get the tattoo artist to put a bit of you (The Dust) into the ink, so when the ink goes into my skin you will be with me forever. What do you think buddy? (I can just hear your Grandpa Wetherald now Grrrr). Tommorow is gonna be another hard day for your Mom, so I'm gonna do everything to make sure she's O.K., don't worry about her buddy, she'll be fine.
Stan the cat is sleeping on the back of the couch (I think he misses you).
I'm gonna go, have a good night Jack

Love

Dad

Bubbles

Hi Mr. Twinkle Toes,
Did you see the bubbles this afternoon? even Daddy came outside with me to blow bubbles for you. We laughed as we pictured you chasing the bubbles and catching them. I love bubbles so much baby boy, the way they blow in the wind and the colors change in the sun, I will always think of you when I see a bubble. I miss you so much baby boy. I love you.
Moma

Are U O.K. there Buddy?

Hi Jack

Mom and I just got home from getting your mom's staples taken out of her belly( I don't think she liked it to much, you would have had to wear your ear muffs). Then we went so she could get some blood taken from her for a test(Your Mama is not havin' a good day), then we went to the pet store(Mom saw a hedge hog there, and you know what Dad said...that's right, Grrrr)
Now were home. Sure do miss you Jack, everyone does. Mabey you could let us know that your hanging around sometime, I know your Mom would like that. Just wanted also to check and make sure you are O.K., and remember don't take any (Ear Muffs) Sh*% from anyone, your a Cornelisse:)
Gotta go and get Mom and me some lunch.
Take Care Buddy

Love Dad

Stanley the cat

Hi Baby Boy, I can't sleep at all tonight. I can't stop thinking that it was one week ago I woke up to the worst nightmare anyone can dream up, and it hasn't stopped yet. Stanley knows what a rough day we're having he's been sleeping all day, and keeps looking around like he want's to do something, but not sure what, so he goes back to sleep. Sounds like how I feel. I'm going to try to sleep on the couch, some vain attempt to feel closer to you.
Your Daddy is having a hard time too baby boy, please watch over him, send him a sign that you're Ok.
Sweet Dreams Twinkle Toes
Love Momma

It's been almost a week buddy

Hi there big boy

It's been almost a week now since you were born. I think your Mom is having a really difficult time tonight and I know the next couple of days are gonna be hard on both of us. Your picture is gonna be in the paper tommorow! Your a Star:), I made sure that they spelt your name right (As a Cornelisse you have to expect it to be spelt wrong from time to time). I really miss you buddy, I wish everyone would just let us be for awhile and let us grieve your passing, but I know that everyone else is hurting too, so we all just have to talk about you and things will get better. The really helpful woman from the hospital that you were in in Toronto called today and said that your memory box is ready:) I can't wait to get it.
Well I'm tired and i'm gonna take er easy for the rest of the night

Luv ya Buddy

Dad

Mr. Twinkle Toes

My dear baby boy, I wish this was a horrible dream that we are going to wake up from. It feels like a cruel joke, and will be over soon. I'll wake up, and have you in my belly, and have a couple of weeks left to feel you dance around, living up to your name "Mr. Twinkle Toes" I wish you could roll around just one more time, your Daddy would smile from ear to ear. There is not another baby more loved under the sun, moon and stars than you Jack, by your Daddy and me, did you know that in the time you were with us? I hope so, if nothing else in the time we had you, you knew how much you were wanted, and loved.
I love you Baby Boy, I miss you, more than my heart could ever say.
Love, your Momma

Sorry Jack

Hi Jack

Grandma and Grandpa W were here this afternoon for a visit and to see how your mom and I are doing. I'm sorry but I had them take your new stroller back with them to Toronto. I had so many plans for us with it, but you know what we can do instead? in the spring when it gets nice out your Mom and I will go for a walk and point out to you all of the things we would have pointed out to you if you were here with us . Everyone loves your room, were gonna keep it the way it is right now until were ready. But remember Jack, that room will ALWAYS be your room my boy:)

Love Ya Buddy

Dad
