I am a Child of God and So is He

After a particularly difficult night missing my baby and wanting so much to hold him right now, I've had to come to the realization that that little boy was my Heavenly Father's first. When I think about how much I love him it is hard to comprehend that Heavenly Father loves him more. As his mother I want nothing more than to protect him from the evils of this world, to take away the pain, to make his life easier, but I have to let him go through these things in order for him to grow. I have to turn that trust over to the Lord and remember that he is his child too. He is going to watch over him when I can't.

I love that little boy so much, it's comforting to know that someone who loves him even more than I do (which truly seems impossible) is looking out for him and is going to take care of him. I am thankful that he has trusted me enough to send me that sweet little boy. What a joy he has been in my life.
