Heaven's Very Special Child..

(I stumbled across this amazing poem and couldn't resist sharing with Team Emma.)

A meeting was held quite far from
from earth, "It's time for
another birth," said the Angels
to the Lord above, "This special child will need much love."

Her progress may seem
very slow, accomplishments she may
not show. And she'll require
much extra care from the folks
she meets away down there.

She may not run or laugh or
play. Her thoughts may seem
quite far away. In many ways
she won't adapt, and she'll be
known as "HANDICAPPED".

So let's be careful where she's
sent. We want her life to be
content. Please, Lord, find the
parents who will do a special
job for you.

They will not realize right away
the leading role they're asked to
play. But with this child sent
from above, comes stronger
faith and richer love.

And soon they'll know the
privilege given, in caring for this
gift from Heaven. Their
precious charge, so meek and
mild, is Heaven's Very Special
Child
