    I just wanted to share with you a poem that I love and am planning to frame for the nursery:

    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 inquired further, “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.”

    Grandma Betty:  Dawn, I'm glad you enjoyed the poem. I thought of you when I read it. I tried to figure out a way to frame it but I'm not very computer wise. Is anyone having a shower for you. I would love to come. Please let me know. Love, Grandma
    Glory Rogers:  This is such a beautiful poem Dawn. This poem will be a perfect addition to little Robbie's nursery.
