19 days and counting!!!! ohmygosh!!!! i can hardly contain my excitement. i know i just posted a couple of days ago, but paul and i have been getting so many messages and emails from dear friends and family, letting us know that we are in their thoughts and prayers. it’s so awesome to know that so many wonderful people are thinking of us during this time. at this moment, paul is exhausted from work (he’s in a class for the next two weeks that begins at 5 every morning) and my body is completely worn out and tired. (i know this is nothing like the exhaustion that our little man will soon bring… ha!!!) but sweet friends, like mom’s friend susan, who send us messages like the one that i am attaching in this post, totally renew our energy and keep us focused on the little bundle that we will be bringing home in 19 short days. so THANK YOU for all of your kindness!!! enjoy today’s post….

A newborn’s conversation with God…. Watch the baby’s eyes.

A baby asked Father, ‘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 child asked, ‘And how am I going to be able to understand when people talk to me if I don’t know the language?’ 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 teach you how to speak.’
‘Who will protect me?’ God said, ‘Your angel will defend you even if it means risking her 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, ‘Father, if I am to leave now, please tell me my angel’s name.’

God said, ‘You will simply call her, ‘Mom.’
