Newborn very carefully on the steps that
Led up to the Chinese factory.
As she quickly ran home in the
Dark she must have known that her
Foundling would be found.
I can only guess at her distress.
But because the mother was willing to
Give up her baby, the little one became
My granddaughter.
She's a young lady, now, and the tears well up
When I try to express how much I love her, like
I did tonight on the phone.
My words fall short.
I want my granddaughter to know that
She wasn't unplanned.
I want her never to forget that God had
Her in His mind for us before she was
Even born, before the
World was formed.
