Here? My Home?


Here? My Home?


I was chatting away online yesterday trying to figure out how to help.. bring another angel home to his parents. Tamara kept coming in my office asking I play dolls with her.

She had pulled out all her long haired dolls and was playing day spa.


I explained "Mommy can't play right now. I'm trying to help bring a little boy home."

Excited and concerned she said "Here.. My home?"

"No honey.. he didn't grow in your Mommy's heart he grew in another woman's heart. And she's having trouble bringing him home and her heart is breaking.

So Mommy is trying to figure out how we can help them. OK?"

" OK mommy" and she gives me a huge hug and kiss on the cheek

and runs off to play.


A few hours pass and she and I are sitting on the front porch eating Fruit Popsicles enjoying a beautiful day. I notice an eye lash on her cheek.

"Hold still"

I get the lash and hold it gently between my fingers.

"Close your eyes and make a wish."

"I wish....."

She grows silent? and blows the lash out of my hand.

"What did you wish for Tamara?"

I asked wondering if I'd jinx it.

"I wish the little boy come home to his mommy's heart."

Jumping into my arms. And with that she melted my heart.. yet again.

For those of you who wonder why I care as much as I do.. This is why!!!
