Our sweet baby Cody touched our lives so much in such a short time. He brought a new sense of meaning to the lives he touched. We will never forget his big smile to show off his new teeth; how he would awake from his nap to find him peeping at you over the bumper guard of his crib with the biggest smile on his face; how he loved to watch "Bear in the Big Blue House, " Bear always made him smile; and most of all the sound of his laughter.
There are so many memories of our time with Cody that we will always cherish. We were truly blessed that God let us borrow him for the time we had. Now, he has been called to a Greater Place, much too soon! Cody is, and will always be our little Angel!
