For Shannon's Baby Girls R.I.P Mummy, we got them

I NEVER thought I'd be sat in my kitchen tears rolling down my face writing this but here it goes.

Many of you was soo lucky to know Shannon Lorraine Barnes (Vincent) but for those who dont, sadly Shannon gained her angel wings at the age of 25, leaving 2 beautiful daughters under the age of 3 not understanding whats going on. They speak to their mummy when they see the moon but their reply "mummy isn't talking to me, mummy's in my heart" the confusion & hurt these little girls are feeling most of us will never know! 

What a light to our world shan was! Such a beautiful, bubbly soul. Anyone who was lucky to meet shannon was blessed with joy, love & happiness from her, she would be their for anyone & everyone always standing by what she believed in at the same time being the most supportive friend you could ask for, there was never a dull moment with our shan! From singing and dancing, to her cracking up with laughter & doing something silly. She didn't just love her family & her children she adored them all so much nothing could come in-between family! Shan left a huge burning scar that will never heal on everyone's hearts, a hole that can never be filled but most of all she was taken from 2 beautiful darling daughters, Phoebe  kathleen & Marni mae. 

These precious little girls have gained an angel but heartbreakingly they have lost a mummy, but not just any mummy... the BEST mummy. 

Shan would have gone through hell and back to protect them. She wanted to give these girls the world and so, soo much more however sadly those dreams where taken from her within the blink of an eye and without getting to say goodbye to anyone she knew or loved. No one expected or knew this would happen it just did and no one can turn back time no matter how much we wish we could but we can do all we can for these little ladies! 

She must have left the world because god had better plans for her, what or why we may never know which hurts most of us but most of all not being able to say goodbye is the worst... what we do know is family and friends will forever keep Shannon's memory alive for her little princess's, we promise to always protect them, keep them safe and forever love them and cherish them as much as Shannon did/ like we would our own! 

We ask for a donation small or big to help us give these little ladys everything we can or that Shannon would have wanted for them... So we can take them on day trips out to places Shannon never got the chance to take them to see, get any thing they made need as they grow, to help nanny redo the garden as its all concreted so it would help to be able to put a grassed area up and safety fence to prevent the girls falling down  the sides. A new gate to make it safer and keep the girls in without needing to be stood Infront of it. The girls are going to need support growing up and hopefully we can raise enough fund to go towards any extra help or support they may need that they might not qualify for (not always the case.)
** For the sake of go fund me I have to add the fund are being withdrawn to my account and once they are recieved will be shared to the family as and when each of them need it for the girls. It will sit in a savings account under my name until its needed by grandmother Charlotte Vincent or her children (marni & phoebe's aunties and uncle.) to be used towards shannons funeral or to be used towards the girls days out & grandmothers garden fixes.**

I know money can never replace the loss of a mother or the love of a mummy but all we can do is try to fill their lifes with as much fun, adventure and magic as we possibly can.

I'm terrible for words or anything like this I haven't had to do this before but I hope you can understand the intentions behind this fund raiser where the girls can enjoy life to the fullest and access any help or distractions they may need at this confusing time for them. It breaks many of our hearts knowing right now they don't understand where mummy is, or why mummy isn't tucking them in at night or even why mummy doesn't reply to them when they speak to the moon but they have the best nanny, auntie Hollie, auntie libby and uncle Ryan, not forgetting the coolest cousins, Bobby, Mya & Bailey! They are blessed with unconditional love of the best family anyone could ask for. Unfortunately until they understand all we can do is our best for them and with that little extra support of funding we can do a little more. Money doesn't buy their mummy back or happiness but it does help heal a little with distractions for children at such a difficult time.

 

Thank you to anyone who can help or support. We have raised the goal due to such an interest in the girls story & shannons family asking that friends don't buy flowers for the funeral but instead donate towards the fundraiser if possible please?

 

Shannon would be so greatful and hugging & kissing anyone who loved her. She's not gone, we are just falling behind in the race. Until the day we meet again my friend ill forever love & miss you, time will never bring me another friend like you :( I love you Shannon! Ill never stop trying to do everything I can for you & your babies!!
