Dear Mommy~
Today is my first birthday, and here I am in Heaven. I know you don’t know what I look like, but I do look just like you. I really miss you Mommy. I thought that we could bond. I’ll never forget the doctor pulling me out of you. I wasn’t with you very long. It wasn’t even a month or two. I have learned a lot up here in Heaven. I think you would be very proud of me. I’ve become very smart, above average Jesus says. When I arrived in Heaven, God gave me my wings right away. He taught me the word abortion; something I remember to this day. It is the devil Mommy, but there’s something I understand. Some mean man raped you, and my birth was just unplanned. So you had to make the decision to keep or let me go. I always wonder what would have been, and what would you have named me? I was an accident, but why couldn’t you accept me? Did you give me up because you weren’t ready? Or was it because you didn’t like me? Couldn’t you have put me up for adoption, so that I could live my life on Earth? I really would have been good Mommy. I just wanted to let you know, that even though you let me go, I love you unconditionally, and this was the only way I could let it show. I forgive you Mommy. And I think about you every day. On some days, do you think that maybe you could blow a kiss or two my way? I should be going now Mommy. It’s getting close to my bed time. I love you with all I know and wish you could hear me say it. Pray to God often Mommy. He feels you haven’t been forgiven.
I Love You Always,
Baby
