Subject: A Cute One,

Once upon a time there was a child ready to be born. The child 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 replied, "Among the angels, I'll choose one for you. 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,
God said, "Your angel will sing for you and will also smile for youeveryday.
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."

I've heard that on Earth there are bad people. 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 hurriedlyasked, "God, if I am to leave now,
please
tell me my angel's name."
Her name is not important. You will simply call her "GRANDMA".

Oh Bren that is SO True. I do think that we Grandmothers are here to give our special angels love and guidence. When we are parents we are so much into trying to do everything right that we don't usually find the time to stop and enjoy all the little pleasures. And God has given us Grandchildren so we don't miss out.
