My Wish

I hold you and watch your little chest rise and fall with each breath.  You are a miracle.  Children are a beautiful blessing from God.  Being a mother is such a sacred and special opportunity.    

I do not know the distance you traveled to come to our earthly home, but I am glad you are here. Your tiny fingers grasp hold of my finger and hold on, reminding me or my responsibility to love, protect, and teach you.

The newness and and innocence of your cry is sweet music to my ears.  You tell me you need me.  And I am happy to be needed.

When you sleep, you still dream of your life in heaven.  You remember the princess that you are, a daughter of our Heavenly King.  May you always remember whose you are and be a light in a darkening world.  This is my wish for you.

Love,
Mom
