Dear Joislen, our parents think im going to wrestle like daddy did. You were my first wrestling partner. you tagged me in to this ring called life, and you cheer me on from the other side of the ropes. our connection cannot be weakened, severed or diminished. You will always be my favorite girl and my big special angel sis. I promise to never forget you, and to make you proud. Do you promise to always look down on us? You know what though? heaven is too far. Promise you'll never leave our hearts? We will always be a family. ill be your voice on earth. if you ever want to say anything, just let me know and ill tell it. happy birthday big sis. I love you j
Love. Love to you all on precious, perfect Joislen's first birthday ❤
The rain here has slowed to a steady drip-drip from the oak leaves, drops tinkling as they land in the puddles below. The sounds rising up from all the softly splashing puddles join together in a subtle clamor of tones just like the delightful giggles of a joyous little girl. Happy birthday, beautiful darling. We hear you.

can't believe a year has passed. My beautiful niece and God Daughter will live in our hearts forever.. Trish Taylor you showed so much strength this past year. Love you both!!
Christyl Chapman Happy birthday Joislen! Thinking of you. I know you will be watching over your little Brother because that is what big Sisters do. Blessings to you Trish and Dewayne. Love you guys.
Dear Joislen,
There are so many things I want to say and yet I fail to find the right words. I want to know what heaven is like. What was it like to be in the presence of Jesus. That must have been so magnificent. I never got to meet your earthly body but I see pictures all the time and you are so so beautiful. Is your crown heavy? The amount of jewels on there I can only imagine. Your family here on earth have helped me enormously, especially your gorgeous mom. You and Jesus are with her all the time. It must be hard watching your beautiful mom cry, to see the ache in her heart. Yet, she continues to celebrate you and to find JOY (that's you) in everything
She motivates me so much. She is so raw and honest and keeps me on the right track spiritually. Joislen darling, can I call you Joisy? Or Joy? I wonder what nickname you have in heaven. I wonder what God calls you. Have you seen Alice? My wonderful daughter Alessandra. You might have heard her laughter before seeing her. Could you give her a kiss and hug from me? We miss her terribly.
Here on earth, you have inspired many. Time might seem short when you were here but it was long enough, perfect enough to bring about so much good. Your visits to mommy and daddy helps them every moment. I love that your so bold and unafraid, showing up in the most random places but in the most needed moments. Girl you do your thang
I've watched your mom go through more and more things yet it always works together in the end. You and Jesus are some team huh The best team there is! Joislen my love
I look forward to meeting you. I look forward to hearing your voice, and catching me up on all I need to know about heaven I look forward to meeting all your friends p.s. are there insects up there? Your mom LOVES insects. Make sure when she comes to see that you show her all the cool and beautiful bugs you find 
HAHHAHAHAHA!!~ I know i know, funny auntie, as if I could tell you something about your mom that you don't already know. You two are so intertwined with each other Happy 1 year my dear
1 year closer to kissing that beautiful face! Love,
Roebbelen family
This time a year ago, I had no idea that it would take your baby girl to appreciate my baby boy. I was so selfish and so upset about being pregnant. It was Joislen who changed my perception. My life has changed for the better, it took you losing flesh n blood, to appreciate my own. I cried for you Trish. I cried for Sampson. But I am forever grateful that you bearing your cross let me appreciate mine. I love you forever Joislen. Thank you for allowing me to see the yellow butterflies in any storm. I love you Peachy. Today I'll go face down not to cry and pray for you, but to praise God for you. I love you Peachy
Happy 1st birthday in heaven. Hope you got better moves than your mom . We love you so much, Gracie Boo! Thank you for thinking about us and helping God watch over us. Forever in our hearts and minds, love you much baby girl! -love Auntie Ally and Cousin
I never heard the cry or voice of one of the most impactful, purposeful children in my life. But I saw her body, held her body, and I will love her until there's no more breath in mine. (Thinking about Joislen today, crying @ beginning of my thoughts, smiling now because that little girl has made and is still making a positive difference in many lives) I love you sister, and I miss you. You are a phenomenal human, and you gave birth to greatness
Joislen..I love and miss you. You are my praise and worship partner forever....Your life will forever have an impact on mine and many others, you're the best Goddaughter and niece, I love you
Leniya- I love you Joislen. I love you Titi
Lil James- hi joislen I Hope you are having fun in heaven
Big James- joislen u r loved and you will always be missed
-God Momma and family
Happy birthday, sweet Joislen. I wish your mom and I met each other through better circumstances, but here we are, Trish and I, missing our daughters together on earth, and there you are, you and Eleanor, hopefully having a big first birthday party in heaven. And as long as you're celebrating, be sure to celebrate your mother and all the wonderful things she has done in your name - raising money for cuddle cots, spreading awareness about stillbirth, being there for so many other angel moms, and so much more.
And be sure to celebrate your new baby brother who will come screaming into this world in the next month and bring your mom and dad so much needed healing. You have such a special job with being his big sister and guardian angel all at once.
Happy birthday, Joislen. Please give Eleanor a hug for me. Natalie Morgan

Happy birthday, sweet angel baby girl! I think about how much fun you and my angel boy must be having. I'll bet your birthday cake tastes sweeter than anything on earth. Thanks for stopping by the other day. We love you. 💛 🎈 Alexandria Kelly
LaDonna Prentice-Lee Trish Taylor thank you for bring back a part of my life that I buried because I didn't know how to embrace it. Your love for your daughter helped me to envision my son face again. Help me remember the first time I told everyone I was expecting and the first time I felt him in my womb. I wish I took picture or made a video. I could go on and on. Thank you again for my happy tears!!! My son would have been 23 years old on September 7.
Happy birthday beautiful Joislen! ~Naz
So proud of the miracles you bright to your mommy and daddy's life and blessing them with your brother, I just know you will continue to care and look after him!! Happy birthday sweets!!!

As I am here in the kitchen making dinner listening to Christian music on Pandora, I am emotionally overcome with Joy for Miss Joislen Grace, Happy Birthday sweet girl. Although I have never met your momma she is one strong amazing woman. I find great Joy in reading your testimonies and gain immense encouragement in your Faith. Trish Taylor you are such a light to others with your story and your walk with the Lord., please continue because I know you have helped me in my walk and I am sure other as well.
I know Pandora is playing all songs for Miss Joislen and You and Dwayne. Here is the line I've been listening too with such awe.

Dearest Trish -Ann...
I thought I'd share something with you.I was retrenched on 5 June '16 after 15 years of serving my company loyally..I have decided to take a break since I hadnt have leave for the last 2 years...Anyway-I applied at the City of Cape Town via sms (as I always wanted to work there) I was contacted 2 weeks later for my assessment and then the next week I went for my interview..almost 1 month had pass and I did not receive any feedback whether or not I was successful or not.Trish I always wanted to have/experience a connection with Joislen...I comforted myself with the fact that we live so many miles apart and maybe she doesnt know me...then the question.But she is an Angel?Angels are everywhere...I then spoke to Joislen ...like spoke to her ..asked her if she could just bring comfort to my heart as I was stressed about NOT getting a phone call back with my interview or assessment results.Guess what?They(City of Cape Town) phoned me at 10:57am today 16-08-2016 ..I was a successful applicant and when my start date would be..I looked up and said Thank you Joislen ..I know that was you with your Heavenly connections..Oh Trish!Thank you for your precious daughter.I just thought Id share this...Let you know that I have a special Angel up aboveLots of Love and watm Hugs
Happy birthday to that perfect baby girl you gave birth to one whole year ago. You have done brilliant things with her memory, and sharing her story of life and love. She did exist, she does have a birthday, and I'm so blessed that I am able to share in on that from over here on the east coast. Happy 1st birthday Joisey! Kristen Freter
The White Rose
by Myrna Cox
by Myrna Cox
All the earth’s mothers where gathered together at God’s garden of flowers. Those beautiful budding spirits who would someday come to earth were nurtured and tended in the garden.
A loving father spoke to the mothers, “See the works of my hands? Some day you will be the mothers to these radiant spirits.”
The garden glowed with a mixture of all kinds and colors.
“Choose one,” He said.
Now in the east corner of the garden, pure white roses stood as sentinels. They were not so colorful as the rest, but glowed with a kind of purity, which set them apart. One by one, mothers stepped forward.
“I want the blue eyed, curly haired one, who will grow to maturity and be a mother in Zion.”
Yet another chose a brown eyed, brown haired boy, full of life and love, who would someday be a prince in a grand country. The garden buzzed with excitement as others chose their own special spirits, those whom they would soon welcome into warmth and love of an earthly home.
Once again the loving father spoke, “But who will take the white roses, the ones in the east corner of the garden? These will return to me in purity and goodness. They will not stay long in your homes, for I must bring them back to my garden for they belong with me. But they will gain bodies as was planned. You will miss them and long for them, but I will personally care for them.”
“No not I", many said in unison. “I couldn’t bear to give one back so soon.” “Nor I” said others. “We will take those who will remain and grow to maturity and live long lives.”
The loving father looked out across the multitude of mothers with a longing in his eyes for someone to step forward. Silence.
Then he said, “See the most pure and perfect of all the white ones? I chose him. He will go down and be a sacrifice for all mankind. He will be scorned, mocked, and crucified. He is mine own. Will not anyone of you choose like unto him?”
A few mothers stepped forward. “Yes Lord, I will.” Then another, “I will as well.” “Yes, we will Lord.”
Soon all the pure white roses were taken and they rejoiced in the choices of their mother.
The father spoke again, “Oh blessed are you who choose the white roses. For your pain will be a heavy cross to bear, but your joy will be exceeding beyond anything you can understand at this time.”
The white ones embraced their mothers and so full was their purity and love that it filled their souls with such endearment. Each mother knew that they could endure the task and the greatest of all the white ones gathered them as a hen gathers her chicks.
The outpouring of love surrounded each mother and child, consuming all the white ones as He prepared them for their task. And each mother who bore the weight of the white rose would feel the overwhelming love of God as they all shouted, “Thy will be done". Jode Flesher

Dear sweet Joislen! You beautiful child. How lucky you are to have such a great mom and dad! Your year in heaven has been hard for them because they miss you so and love you so. But don't you worry about them, sweet angel. They know you are safe and pure and with Jesus. You celebrate your special day and say Hi to your buddy Ozlan. Tell him his grandma loves him and misses him. Love to All! Vickie Johnson Ottley
Oh baby girl, what is there to say. I'm not quite sure but I'll do my best to articulate. It's been a year, and somewhere in that time you brought your mama to me. I didn't know her story and she didn't know mine, but that would change. We would talk about you and about Tucker, heck we still do!
Your mom has brought me comfort in some hard times. It seems like a small gesture to simply say a few words but this is the best I can do.
You lived big, you are so loved and man are you missed. 💕💕

Happy first earth year in heaven baby Jos. Your tia and tio love you so. I know you have changed and helped many people in this world and I am so proud of ya for being able to do that. Fly free with the Angels. Much Love Nina Crystal Crystal Alonso
Hi baby girl. I'm so sorry that I couldn't put a yellow butterfly on the picture. The only app that I have and know how to use that has the butterfly is freezing . This is J-Qwon Ace Rosetta Nevaeh Manuela Israel... Manuela is my last child. Around the time that you turn one year she will turn eight months, therefor you girls are four months apart from each other. HAPPY HEAVENLY ONE YEAR BIRTHDAY MY SWEET GIRL. I can't believe you are one years old already, where has the time gone. You are part of the reason why Manuela is here today Josi. I met your mother through her friend Natalie's page which I somehow randomly came across (probably the holy spirit). And due to my amazing lurking skills lol I ended up finding your mother, definitely a blessing in disguise. When I was pregnant with Manuela it was one of the deepest rock bottoms of my life (there were many others but this one was pretty bad). I was severely depressed, anxious, etc. I went nights without sleeping. I was under so much stress that I literally gained 8 pounds from beginning to end of pregnancy and I went full term, mind you I gained almost 40 with each of my other children. So that alone shows the stress level I was under. I really didn't think my girl was going to make it. I could have sworn I was going to deliver her dead. I was abused horribly during that pregnancy and treated very badly by a man I'd at the time give the shirt off my back for. I went to every doctors appointment and ultrasound alone. I remember atleast a few times a week pushing grocery carts filled with food and two kids in the blizzard snow big belly pregnant and all. As horrible as it sounds I considered abortion. I was already a single mother of two kids. I thought there was no way I could bring a third into this life. But being a child of the God of Israel and coming across your mommy's page and seeing your pictures changed everything. The very second I ended up on her page I cried and cried and cried. Months went by long before we even became actual friends on Facebook but yet during the time we weren't I still went to your mother's page everyday and looked through all your pictures and cried. Your mother would have given anything to even have just 5 minutes holding you alive and breathing. To lose a child is the most traumatic thing. Something I never experienced but just the thought alone literally makes my stomach turn. Your testimony is saving lives and I've told your mother that numerous times. I'm sure it doesn't take away the pain. I'm sure that despite it all she still misses and loves and wishes you were here. We all have a purpose and you're fulfilling yours. You're such a lucky girl to be on the most beautiful existed place ever, Heaven. You get to be in the Lord's arms how amazing. I can't even imagine the peace and happiness and beauty. Just to try and imagine a glorious beautiful giant angelic angel alone is not something I can comprehend. But there you are in the arms of the Lord who is a million times more beautiful. I hope that you are singing and dancing and playing and worshiping everyday. Never stop visiting your mommy because she loves your presence dearly. Your mommy taught me "signs". She sees you in everything Josi. Every little thing she whole heartedly believes that it is you. I found her faith absolutely amazing. Some people ask God for signs and receive it but question if it was really a sign and due to lack of faith ask for more and end up missing the ones they already received. Because of your mother I now walk through everyday of my life seeing signs and thanking God for them. Internal growth is amazing and you and your mother have given some of it to me. When my time comes I can't wait to meet and hug and Thankyou. I came across your testimony at the perfect time. But God is good like that so I'm not surprised four crowns one for myself and each of my kids and a yellow heart for you because my love you helped change us. Natasha Jjrm

Chris Harper (ugh. yellow butterfly dress beautiful? YES PLEASE)
(i write yes please before Chris offered it to us! i just meant it was awesome!)
Cris Harper's lovely twins Iris and Bella are donating this to Joislen's memory so Gracelen can one day wear it. Gracelen will be baptized in this dress. go to kindergarten in this dress. and eventually get married in this dress. lol im joking but seriously we can cut a piece of fabric and work it in for sentiment cant we? If shes anything like me n her sisters she'll be all about it!
5:30PM August 16 -conclusion from mommy
WELL! you can put a fork in me cuz im done. This is how the night concludes. Oh my God. Dwayne got home. Rabbits ate his, I mean our, garden. So we had to go to Ace Hardware to get a fence gate barrier thingy. I had plans to get out of bed today truly. I have a todo list to prove it. But that didn't happen. I wasn't sad really. Just kinda stuck.
We get into ace and go to the garden section in the back. I am intensely searching for a yellow butterfly. It's garden stuff. Fairies and fountains and chimes. I saw butterfly stuff but not yellow. A yellow bumble bee. No Joislen butterfly. I said Lord I'm desperate for a hug from my girl today.
Nothing.
We were in the check out line by this point.
I have accepted I will see no yellow butterfly. I get to looking at the cards out of curiosity and boredom. And I scream in the middle of this store. There it was. The only yellow butterfly in the store was hiding in this card. And then the words inside. I'm expecting happy birthday. Get well soon. But no. It's like, hello bereaved mother, hello Trish-Ann, Hi mommy. Never forget all things work together for good I tell the cashier about joislen and its her birthday and he was just blown away. he exclaimed "well happy birthday to your angel!" and daddy said, "thank you" with that proud dad smile on his face. well Joislen grace. My little warrior. My co-pilot. Our first 10 months together were defining. Our first year together in a different form was powerful. I am so excited to see what's in store for our future baby girl. You're mommy's partner. Together with God and our family, we can conquer anything! Love you baby face
6:30pm
👼🏽👼🏽👼🏽 okay Joislen that's enough Honey we all know your here. I'm going to throw up. The card I just shared? My best friend/her aunt Ashley just showed me this. From FOUR YEARS AGO. WHAT IS GOING ON! Joislen! lol! Aren't u supposed to be having a party in heaven?! You're having WAY too much fun. I can't take anymore. She loves her auntash. All thanks to those plant eating rabbits huh.
I have avoided wishing Joislyn a happy birthday because I feel a loss. It sounds so weird but we feel so close to people we have never met but know their story. I felt I was grievimg with you. As my son lies asleep on my shoulder I think about how blessed I am. He is my rainbow after we lost our Savanna and he probably wouldnt be here without what has become her story. Joislyn came first ...giving a story for her and d3. Gods plans are perfect even though we dont always understand them. You have made it through this day with such beautiful grace. I know everyone is rejoicing with her in Heaven today....remimding me of the song....Wheen we all get to Heaven, what a day of rejoicing that will be..... Happy Birthday Joislyn. Michelle and Judah Stoermer
