I thought I would share this -

I am the mother to two beautiful preemie girls - One ( Taylor ) was born at 31 weeks and Addyson was born at 35 weeks.

"But Lord, I don't think she even believes in you."

God smiles. "No matter, I can fix that. This one is perfect.She has just the right amount of selfishness.

"The angel gasps, "Selfishness?! Is that a virtue?"

God nods. "If she can't separate herself from the child occasionally, she will never survive. Yes, here is a woman whom I will bless with a child less than perfect.

She doesn't know it yet, but she is to be envied.

She will never take for granted a spoken word.

She will never consider a step ordinary.

When her child says 'mama' for the first time, she will be witness to a miracle and know it.

I will permit her to see clearly the things I see ignorance, cruelty, prejudice and allow her to rise above them.

She will never be alone.


Often I feel alone in this journey with Taylor and I question why?! But I am envied because of Taylor's challenges people envy the strength it takes for us to overcome challenges.

Just thought I would share what an amazing God we all have!
