A Gift From God
Within my heart I feel your supple and devoted touch. For me you have the sex appeal that's means so much. Sex is not the only thing that keeps us together; it's how you care and how you act when troubles come our way. I know that I can count on you and I know you'll understand if there is something wrong that I would do and you're always there to hold my hand. I give this letter of love to you he way I gave my heart the day we said, "I do" and 'Til death when we must part. I have a strong belief in God and as I become older and experience more I believe even more.
My husband and I have both been married before and are raising our six children together. The ages are ranging in 9-13. We love all of our children but something has always been missing, where was "our" child?? We had been trying for 3 years to have a child together to be able to connect our families together forever but nothing ever happened. We went through numerous tests and procedures and while we kept on doing everything medically and physically possible to have a child, we weren't becoming pregnant but everyone around us was.
Then one night, I had a dream with my mother in it who had passed away in 1999. I'd never before dreamt of her but one night July night in 2003 I did. In my dream, my mother was sitting on a bench holding a baby girl. I asked her whose child she was holding and she didn't say a word, but I felt her talking to me. She told me it was my daughter. I explained to her that I didn't have a baby and she said that I did and handed me this precious little girl. I looked up to where my mother was and she was gone and I had this beautiful baby in my arms.
When I woke up the next morning I was troubled. Troubled because that was the first time I had ever dreamed of my mother since her death and troubled because I didn't have a baby.
Weeks came and went and my husband and I decided that maybe it just wasn't meant for us to have a child together so we cancelled all of our upcoming appointments and just accept our family the way it was. I returned to college in September to get a degree in Nursing. School was great but in the beginning of October I became severely ill and went to the hospital. I wasn't sure if it was my appendix or just the flu. To our surprise, I was pregnant. When finding out how far along I was pregnant, we realized that we became pregnant shortly after my dream of my mother. How could that be? How could she, in her own special way, tell me we would be having a baby?
In April of 2004 our little Angel was born. SHE is absolutely wonderful. With everything that happened and how it took place, I believe that God had a huge part to play in it. I believe that God has a meaning and a will for everyone; this was his plan for our family.
Here is a poem that I have included in all of our Thank You cards; we truly believe that God had a huge part of bringing KayleighAnn into our lives!
Our Baby's an Angel
that flew to the earth,
her wings disappeared
at the time of her birth.
One look in her eyes
and we're never the same
She's part of us now
and that part has a name.
That part is our heart
and a bond that won't sever.
Our Babies an Angel,
We love her forever
