My mom sent this email to me and I loved it so much I had to share...
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 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."
"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."
I think I will print this out and read it everyday. I'm supposed to be my children's angel...WOW, that's incredible. I'm supposed to be working for/with God to raise these kids but it's hard to do in everyday life and with them not listening, getting frustrated with them, having to clean the house, cook breakfast, lunch, dinner, keep up with laundry, it's hard to remember that and do that in the little things that we do daily. But I pray that He shows me those times that I can teach them about Him and mold them into Godly people. Thank you God for the 3 (almost 4) little gifts Denzil and I have from you and thank you for asigning me the job of their "angel"!!
