Someone sent this to me so I thought that I'd pass it on <BR>> Once upon a time there was a child ready to be <BR>> born. <BR>> The child asked God, "They tell me you are <BR>> sending me to earth <BR>> tomorrow, but how am I going to live there being <BR>> so small and helpless?" <BR>> <BR>> God replied, "Among the many angels, I chose one <BR>> for <BR>> you. Your angel will be waiting for you and <BR>> will take care of <BR>> you." <BR>> <BR>> The child further inquired, "But tell me, here in <BR>> <BR>> heaven I don't have to do anything but sing and <BR>> smile to be happy." <BR>> <BR>> God said, "Your angel will sing for you and will <BR>> also <BR>> smile for you every day. And you will feel your <BR>> angel's love and be <BR>> very happy." <BR>> <BR>> Again the child asked, "And how am I going to be <BR>> able <BR>> to understand when people talk to me if I don't <BR>> know the language?" <BR>> <BR>> <BR>> God said, "Your angel will tell you the most <BR>> beautiful <BR>> and sweet words you will ever hear, and with <BR>> much patience and <BR>> care, your angel will teach you how to speak." <BR>> <BR>> "And what am I going to do when I want to talk to <BR>> <BR>> you?" God said, "Your angel will place your <BR>> hands together <BR>> and will teach you how to pray." <BR>> <BR>> "I've heard that on Earth there are bad men. Who <BR>> will <BR>> protect me?" God said, "Your angel will defend <BR>> you even if it means <BR>> risking it's life." <BR>> <BR>> "But I will always be sad because I will not see <BR>> you <BR>> anymore." God said, "Your angel will always talk <BR>> to you about me <BR>> and will teach you the way to come back to me, <BR>> even though I <BR>> will always be next to you." <BR>> <BR>> At that moment there was much peace in heaven, <BR>> but <BR>> voices from Earth could be heard and the child <BR>> hurriedly asked, <BR>> "God, if I am to leave now, please tell me my <BR>> angel's name." <BR>> <BR>> "Her name is not important. You will simply call <BR>> her <BR>> Mom." <BR>> <BR>> Lift a mother's spirit, send this to every mother <BR>> you <BR>> know.
