A message from Mary

We went out to dinner sat night to celebrate our new baby coming and that's where we told the kids. When we got home Ava was in her room playing and I went in to dress her for bed. She looked at me as serious as ever and said "you know Mary knows what kind of baby you are going to have and she said it's a boy. Oh and Maya waved to me!!!" Her voice raised and she became excited. I saw her mom and she has blond hair like me and blue eyes too." I said does she look like you and she said" yes but really more like you." This of course brought tears to my eyes and I had to remove myself to the bathroom for a bit. You see Ava tells me and has for quite some time that Mary takes care of Maya and God takes care of Jesus. Because in her mind from her children's bibles and Christmas books Jesus is always a baby, and therefore they need to be taken care of. I think it's her way of having peace. You see she worries alot about how can Nonnie leave Tinkerbell at home who will take care of her? How can we leave the cats alone who will take care of them. How can we leave daddy at home who will take care of him, lol. But she does in her little mind everyone needs someone to take care of them at all times, so Mary takes care of Maya. I wish I could see what she sees. Whether it's really with her eyes or with her heart she sees and I long for the day I can.
