Caroline Hope Beens was born Monday, Nov. 23, 2020.
She passed away Tuesday, Nov. 24, around 12:12 a.m. She surprised us all by letting out a few cries, as well as opened her eyes some and even stretched her little legs out once. We got to watch her blow some bubbles and snuggle and kiss her. She was very and still is very much loved and has touched so many hearts in the short five and a half hours she was with us. We are so grateful God gave us the opportunity to have her baptized, be her parents and to show her unconditional love. Our beautiful baby girl. Mommy and Daddy love and miss you so, so much, but we know you are watching down on us from heaven, not in any pain and we will meet you again someday.
