I found this the other day tucked away in a folder in my email. Somehow the words in this story mean something truly amazing to me now that I have one little man who is walking, talking, becoming more and more independent every day, and yet I still have this little baby girl who relies on me for everything. How special these moments are.
A Newborn's Conversation with God
A baby asked God, "They tell me you are sending me
to earth tomorrow, but how am I going to live there being so small and
helpless?"
God said, "Your angel will be waiting for you and
will take care of you."
The child further inquired, "But tell me, here in
heaven I don't have
to do anything but sing and smile to be
happy."
God said, "Your angel will sing for you and will
also smile for you.
And you will feel your angel's love and be very
happy."
Again the small child asked, "And how am I going to
be able to understand
God said, "Your angel will tell you the most
beautiful and sweet words
you will ever hear, and with much patience and care, your
angel will
"And what am I going to do when I want to talk to
you?"
God said, "Your angel will place your hands together
and will teach
you how to pray."
"Who will protect me?"
God said, "Your angel will defend you even if it
means risking its life."
"But I will always be sad because I will not see you
anymore."
God said, "Your angel will always talk to you about
Me and will teach
you the way to come back to Me, even though I will always
be next to you."
At that moment there was much peace in Heaven, but voices
from Earth
could be heard and the child hurriedly asked, "God,
if I am to leave
now, please tell me my angel's name."
God said, "You will simply call her, 'Mom.'"
