Another Child
Another Child
Lord, Eternal God, Father Christ,
Thank You for giving me another child
The curly blonde baby angel said “Tell the priest that the babies are safe in heaven
God wants to give us women chance/choice to save ourselves”
My children are enough
They’re in day care
Preparing for their diaper and snacks- dropping them off and heading for work
At the end of my 9-5 job
I would pick them up
Head home- get them dinner
Baths
Bedtime stories
Doing laundry every other night, and again
By Friday evening I was wiped out
Please give me more strength and perseverance to do my task to them
You told the baby angel that the babies are safe in heaven
My choice is to return this baby to You through abortion Liberty
If it is a sin
Forgive me but I want to be a good mother to my children,
thank You for your forgiveness.
Amen.
