A Newborn's Conversation with God

I was just catching up on my friends blogs and I saw this post from Sarah, so I'm stealing it! ;)

She got an email forward titled, "A Newborn's Conversation with God" and she decided to post about it. I read it and it was so sweet I had to post it as well.

There are a LOT of times lately where I'm DONE being pregnant. I'm uncomfortable all the time. I'm always hungry since I'm on a diabetic diet now. I don't sleep throughout the night anymore so I'm pretty tired lately. Basically I'm just cranky!! :-)

But this email made me realize how incredible this whole experience is and how the end result is totally and completely worth it.

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 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'm still pretty tired of being pregnant and I still can't wait for Dominick to be here, but it makes me realize how beautiful pregnancy is and there will be a day when I decide we have enough children and I'll miss being pregnant. So for now, I'll try to focus on the positives...
