Peacefully from my chest to His arms and then to grandma Janet's @ 2:57am.
She indeed made it Home for Easter! Her Home!
We walked thru the front door of our home at 5:27am indeed a family of 5!
Thanking Jesus for the time we had!
5 whole days
18 whole hours
10 whole minutes
She has been healed and made WHOLE! And all in His timing!

That child, so wonderfully woven by the Master Weaver, has met her Creator. I am thanful for the time He gave you to spend with her and now I pray for your physical and emotional healing. You have a delightful family and how thankful that I have met you via your blog. Your faith and spirit is a blessing Chrissy. Just as today we celebrate His resurrection, so we celebrate Eva's into her eternal home.--Becky
Praying that God will give your His strength & blessed assurance today and in the coming days. You loved her so hard and so well in the days you were given. You are right that He is faithful to hold her now. Because of His resurrection is our resurrection, and Eva's.
What timing! Painfully perfect.
Praying.
Thank you for sharing her with us.
I'm so sorry for your great loss. Eva is a beautiful treasure. May God hold you close today and always.
Praying lots for you this Easter morning. May God bless you and your family with peace and comfort. I can just picture little Eva up in heaven, pain free in a sin free world and that is a good thing. As hard as it is for those here, she is in the best place ever.
Maybe even playing with my 3 babies up there.
God Bless you all.
Happy Easter!
I feel like I need to say more, but the words escape me. Just know I am praying for you all.

Chrissy, Vinnie, Dominic, & Mya - I am so glad that Eva spent her ordained days with. I'm so sorry it was too short. Praise God for peaceful passings ... they are a small bit of peace in the heartache. So glad she's HOME with Jesus, Joshua, Tristan... Heaven's nursery is sadly full. Thank goodness it's a fun nursery and not a NICU looking mess...
I'll be praying for you in the next weeks and months.
I know.
God certainly chose the most perfect parents for baby Eva. Thank you for sharing her with us.
We will be keeping you all in our prayers.
Praying continuously for all of you ... as I celebrated His resurrection this morning, I will celebrate the beautiful gift of Eva and her healing. Heaven becomes a sweeter place with each one of these little ones who enters its gates.
Try to get some rest today.
Chrissy, Vinnie and family: My heart is saddened as you have lost precious little Eva... I weep with you as I know that you loved her dearly...
I am however rejoicing that she has been made whole that on the day that Christ was risen so was little Eva... I was praying all night and I trust that God knows what was best for Eva...
I am honored that I had the chance to meet little miss Eva... She is a beautiful little girl... And we will all see her again someday...
I know that you are hurting... I want you to remember the milestones that she made... Your desire was to be able to hold and cuddle her... And you were able to do that... You had more time with her than you thought you would have... I rejoice for that time...
I am here for you whenever you need me...
I love you Sis...
Dawn
Your family is in my heart forever. I am so happy that the Lord gave you time to hold, kiss, and love Eva. She is now in the loving arms of Jesus.
Love,

I am so sorry to hear that Eva has gained her tiny angel wings. We can all take comfort knowing she is with Jesus on this Easter day. I will keep your family in my thoughts and prayers.

HE IS RISEN!
Many prayers for your family as you grieve your earthly loss and celebrate Eva's beautiful life.
Continued prayers...
I am so sorry for your loss, but so grateful for the five days, 18 hours, and 10 minutes you had with her.
And she got to meet Jesus on Easter! How cool for Eva!
She is beautiful!
Chrissy-
Like Jessica said... we learn from others and first off, I know I've said it before, but CONGRATULATION on sweet Eva! Of all days to go home, this is a beautiful day to see the risen Lord!
We love you and are praying for your family during this time and in the time ahead!
Love so much!
Kenzie
Dear Eva's Family,
My heart, thoughts, and prayers are with you during this difficult time. Your beautiful daughter, Eva was so blessed to have been born into such a wonderful family. I'm so glad you got to walk through the door, of your home, as a family of five. I will continue my prayers as you go go through your next journey.
GOD BLESS!
Sincerely,
Rebecca
Chrissy,
I know your heart aches this morning, yet I also know that you know she is with Jesus this morning. On Easter, she gets to see the Risen Lord, while all of us will praise Him, looking forward to the day we will see Him.
She was beautiful. She is undoubtedly more beautiful than we can imagine now. You are in my prayers!
Love, Angie
my prayers are with you, today and always.
I am so sorry for you loss, you and your family are in our prayers this Easter morning.
What a perfect day for your beautiful little Eva to earn her wings.
I'm so thankful for the time you were given with her to hold her, love her, and know her.
Continuing to pray for your family and specifically for you to get some rest so you can continue to heal.
Praise the Lord, from whom all blessings flow. I thank Him from the bottom of my heart for sending little girls who live five days and some extra hours, yet change eternity. What a perfect day for her to join our risen Lord, in her perfect little body to match her perfect little spirit. I am praying for your hearts as you find a new normal, after having held a beautiful resident of Heaven for five days. Trust me, it changes everything. You will always be better for having known Eva Janette.
The stone was rolled away....
Cling to Psalm 139.
Chrissy and Vinnie,
I was sorry to learn that Eva is no longer in your arms, but am so happy to know that you both know, and your children know whose arms hold her now (with Grandma Janet cutting in, of course!).
Easter morning was such perfect timing, a reminder that the precious gift of your daughter is not lost, because of the precious gift of God's son.
Much love, connie
THANKS FOR SHARING THE PICTURES! WHAT GREAT MEMORIES YOU WILL HAVE! GOD BLESS!
Dear Chrissy & Family,
All through your blog since Eva's birth you stated what you wanted, but your faith revelealed to you that it was all "in God's Perfect Timing.."
As I watched the sun rise on the beach this morning through my tears I thought of the scripture my dad wanted me to read as the sun rose at the sunrise service. He even made a point to call lst night and remind me again to read the scripture. I flipped to John 20:10 It was about Mary Magdalene crying at Jesus's tomb.
She saw 2 angels seated at where his body had been, and they asked her why she was crying, and she replied they had taken her Lord away, and she didn't know where they had put him. She turned around and saw Jesus standing there, but she didn't know it was Jesus. He asked her why she was crying, and who she was looking for. She thought he was the gardener, and told him if he had carried him away to tell her where he put him and she would get him.
Jesus called her by name "Mary." She turned to him and cried "Rabboni!" (aramic for Teacher).
He told her to not hold onto him for he had not yet returned to the Father, but he instructed her to go to his brothers and tell them "I am returning to my Father and YOUR FATHER, to my God and YOUR GOD." Mary Magdalene went to the disciples with the news she had seen the Lord!
You are weeping as Mary wept, because Eva has been taken away but unlike Mary you don't have to wonder at all where she has gone- because she has returned to the Father, HER FATHER-SHE HAS RISEN! on a most Glorious Day, and I pray this can bring you some comfort during this time of aching grief. Just as the bright, beautiful, warm sun rose over the ocean I thought of your beautiful, precious daughter Eva-she rose to be with the Lord-She Has RISEN. I thought of you, and your family, and I said a prayer for you all, and asked for extra special blessings and comforting that only He can truly provide for you during this time in your lives. I pray that He lays his hands on you all, and constantly reminds you of his healing presence. That on this day and everyday you will be reminded during your grief of this truth, that Easter just isn't on one day, but everyday because He has RISEN.
Love and heartfelt prayers...
I am praying for you and your family Chrissy. I was so hoping that Eva would be able to come home with you even if just for a little while. She is truly home now. I know your hearts ache because of your loss but her gain is immense. She accomplished all God set out for her to do in her days here. Please know if you need to talk I am here. Eva truly is a miracle and I know my life has been touched by her deeply! You will ALWAYS be a family of five!
We are so sorry that sweet Eva Janette is no longer in your arms, yet we rejoice that she is well in His. We are praying for your family...may the presence of Christ overwhelm you in the days, months, years ahead.
Sharing in you sorrow,
Matt & Ginny Mooney

Kristy,
You have my heart this morning as Eva received her Easter Wings. I am sure she helped color the skies for Easter Sunrise Services all over the world. I am praying for your hearts that are broken, asking God to lift you up and give you rest. We got our miracle Chrissy, precious time, precious love, gentle passing, perfect day to meet Jesus, Healed and Whole. May you get sweet rest and catch your breath.
Love, Laurie in Ca.
I prayed specifically for you, your family, and Eva today in church. I am so sorry to hear of your loss but thankful she is in a better place :)

Our Father says, "Come to me all ye little children". Today little Eva went to live with Jesus and what a perfect day it has been for that gift.
I pray for your healing Chrissy, physically, and emotionally. God has spoken to you and you were listening. You could hear Him. Praise God for that. Vinnie, God is holding you at this moment also. He will give you rest and peace with the going home of your sweet little angel. Mya and Dominic, you are wonderful children. You have made your mother and father proud. Your little sister may not be here on earth but she will forever be with all of you in your heart.
Thank you for sharing your sweet family with me. I have been uplifted, blessed, encouraged and ministered too. May God Bless you each and everyday as He has on this Easter morning.

Chrissy,
I left a comment this morning, but I don't see it now...mmmm not sure where it went....
You have been in my thoughts and prayers all day...
Thanking God for the time you got to spend holding and cuddling with Eva.
Praying that He will heal all of your hearts, just as He has healed precious Eva.
Praying that you are strengthened physically and are able to take care of yourself and get some productive rest.
Praying for peace and comfort for all of you (your precious family of 5!).
Love you, my sweet friend,

How special for Eva to return to the Lord on the day celebrating Christ's resurrection.
I'm sorry that your time with Eva was so short, and also I rejoice that you had this time at all.
I'll pray that you and your family are comforted in your time of grief and that your body will continue to heal and become strong.
Eva has so many little friends, Tristan, Joshua, Molly, and so many more, not to mention all of her family members who went on before her.
When the time is right, you will be with your daughter again. This is what we celebrate today. Until then, I wish you all the best.
Happy Easter!
Chrissy,

I am so sorry for your loss.
Praying for your family in your time of loss of sweet little Eva...I was thinking earlier today about my nephew who went to heaven a few months ago and what it must be like to be there on Easter Sunday. As the song says...I can only imagine. I do know that it will more than we can hope for and that it will be for eternity. I pray that you can find comfort in the assurance that Eva is safe in the arms of Jesus and that He will continue to sustain your family in your time of grief.
Chrissy, Vinnie, Dom & Mya,
I have prayed for your precious family & I will continue to pray for you as you go through this next leg of your journey. Your little angel is beautiful & I have loved getting to know her through you.
Love,

I'm praying for your family now and in the days/weeks ahead. You have been a testimony to the Lord's goodness and mercy as you have shared Eva's life with so many people. Just by choosing life for her you have honored God, and I'm so thankful you did. Remember that God will never leave you nor forsake you during this time.
In Christ's Love,
