A Daughter of God

I just wanted to share a little experience I had while in the hospital.

Logan was in class so I was just there at the hospital by myself for a couple of hours, and Emma had just finished nursing and was awake and just watching me so I was talking to her. I was just talking about Logan and all her grandparents and aunts and uncles and suddenly I had this really strong urge to talk about Heaven and how she's a daughter of God. So I was telling her all about it and after a minute she lets out a big breath and just looks at me and the look said a million things, but most importantly it said, "I'm glad you know that mom, don't let me forget it." It was such a strong impression. It was really short and only lasted a few seconds, but I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that this little girl came from God. And I love her so much. And I will do all I can to teach her that so that she doesn't forget.
