The following is a story we found on someones blog. We don't know who wrote it but we do feel like we should share it. It doesn't fit our situation perfectly but find it a very beautiful story. Be prepared with a box of tissues it is a tear jerker.

Its a beautiful day up in heaven. Jesus is rounding up his tiniest angels, to go live on earth, and be born. One of the sweetest angels say to Jesus "I don't want to leave, I like it here, and I will miss you." He reassures the scared little angel that everything will be okay, and that he is just going for a visit. He is still not swayed on this idea. So Jesus kneels down and says, "how about if you leave half your heart here with me and you take the other half with you, will that be okay?" The angel smile's and says, " I guess that will work." But the little angel is still scared. He asks "Will I still be okay with only half of my heart?" Jesus replies "Of course you will, I have other angels out there that will help out, and you will be fine." Then Jesus gives the angel more details about his plan. He says "When you are born, your Mommy will be scared, so you will have to be strong, and when you feel weak just remember that I have the other half of your heart." " Enjoy your time with your family, play and laugh every day." "And when its time to come back to heaven, I will make your heart whole again. Always remember that you are not broken, just torn between two loves."
