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 ."

About Me
- Tevita and Jodi
- Tevita and I met 13 years ago in Provo Utah. What a cutie he was! In June we will have been married for 12 years. It is hard to believe that we have been married that long but yep, here we are coming up on 12. We have 5 beautiful children that keep us pretty busy. We also have 3 angel baby boys that we know we will be with after this life. We have so many different personalities in this house but there is one thing for sure...we love each other and are grateful for this family! What a great life!

oh Jodi, I love this!! And it's so true, your little one will have a very special angel, just like the rest of your kids :)
Jodi, I am not sure if they have called a new leader. McKay had earned his Webelos/Arrow of Light before Susan left, I just followed up with the last few requirements. I just asked Wendi who was due first in the group of baby boomers:) Let the race begin...okay so I guess you shouldn't really try to win!
Love the poem. I cant believe how close you are to having another little baby. It is going to go by so fast. Shirlyn
Jodi,
That is such a beautiful post about the e-mail. It made me cry and it gave me chills. I'm glad that things are going well for you. I hope that you are feeling better than you were a couple of days ago. I turned into a ginormous crab toward the end of my pregnancy and I hated it. So I feel for what you are going through. I'm so happy that we have gotten in touch after all of these years. You were always such a very good friend and one of the bestest friends I have ever had the pleasure of knowing. You have strong heart and spirit. I know that you would do anything for anybody. I look forward to seeing pictures of your new little one. I love you and am grateful to have you as friend.
