    It is always sad to hear of the loss of someone’s precious baby. Yet this story is heartwarming due to the circumstances of the priest attempting to baptise the first baby, but baptizing another by mistake and finally getting to the first baby.
    That two families were able to hopefully know comfort in the fact that their child received baptism, even one if by mistake shows the existance of a higher power at work.
    To both children – RIP.

    You and yours may feel alone but, we understand your loss because all of us lose a little bit when these things happen. Sometimes, bad things happen to good people. Your video is inspiring and, helps your daughter stay alive in many hearts.

    What ceremony can we fit
    You into now?
    We have never seen you stride
    Ambitiously the world we know.
    You could not come and yet you go…
    Then all our consolation is
    That grief can be as pure as this.

    My wife and I lost a little one like this back in 1998. His name was Ethan and he was laid to rest under a big beautiful oak tree in a peaceful cemetary in Michigan.

    To the Peitz family: We know your pain, you are in our prayers, and you are not alone.
