Just a Quick Note...

Dear Mom and Dad,

It's been a long time since I first wrote to you. I began writing to you because I missed you and felt so lost as a new mother and wished for nothing more than for you to be here on Earth so I could ask you all of the questions I had about being a new mom and parenting.

Fast forward to now. I still write to you but it's different. I'm different and the reason I'm different is because I've grown in ways that far exceeded anything I ever could have imagined and it's actually, in part, because of both of you.

After you both passed away, I felt like an orphan who was not only abandoned by you both but also orphaned in the sense that I didn't understand that I was a child of God.

I know now that I was and still am your child in the earthly sense of being your daughter. But I wasn't adopted by you both; I was created in the image and likeness of God when He planted me in your womb, Mom. I was born out of the love you both had for each other and God knew exactly what He was doing when He chose you both to be my parents.

I just wanted to share that with you.

I love you both so much and will continue to ask for your intercession because I know you are powerful intercessors not only for me but for all of us.

Until we meet again, God bless.

Love,

Jennifer
