My angel, ohpaw has written some beautiful words to describe a very exciting journey ahead of us. I feel blessed that your ohpaw feels that way about us. Love you dad.
"Somewhere, beyond the bright blue, a little soul knew that the time had come for him to descend to earth and spend some years there as a human being. So the little soul approached the Giver of Life and said, “Oh Great and Loving Giver of Life, please grant me the right to choose my own parents!” The Living One smiled benignly down on the little soul and softly said, “My precious little one, your wish is granted.”
With much joy the little soul began to scan the earth in search of the humans he would want as parents. He (we say “he,” but actually, little souls have no gender, as yet) flew over many continents and oceans, he visited many big cities, dry and arid deserts, lush, green forests and icily cold polar regions. He saw much poverty - and much wealth. He saw some happiness, but plenty of sadness. He saw some generosity, but much greed. The little soul became quite despondent, because he could not find a suitable couple whom he would want to be his parents.
Then, on a sunny, but wintry afternoon he saw a young couple playing on the lawn with their little son, whom, he later learned, they called, “our little warrior.” The mommy’s demeanour was soft and gentle, but strong. The daddy was as bright and shiny as the sun itself. He saw the daddy’s sturdy yet friendly face, saw his jaunty smile, heard him belly laugh at his little son’s antics, and he heard the little boy chortling with delight at the tricks his daddy got up to.
Right there and then he knew for sure he wanted those two as his parents. So, with great anticipation the little soul returned to the Giver of Life and said, “Oh Merciful One, I have made my choice.” The Supreme One leaned forward in a manner suggesting He was completely ignorant of what He was about to hear (although He already knew the answer), and said, “Who shall it be? I can’t wait to hear whom you have chosen!” “I want Wesley and Elriza to be my daddy and mommy, and I want Caden to be my brother. The Giver of Life nodded in approval and said, “You have chosen well, my little one. Let it be according to your desire.”
