A Christmas Miracle

 

Susie smiled and said, "You can hug up to me anytime."  She kissed Sarah's cheek and said "I love you Sarah."  Sarah said, "I love you too Mommy, forever."  Then she giggled. 'What a great day this has been,'  Susie thought to herself.  After the girls left, Susie knew Sarah was tired so she said, "Lets get your clothes changed and get you to bed, young lady."  Sarah said, "Okay Mommy, I am kind of tired, but today was so much fun."  Bill walked over and kissed Sarah and said, "You get some sleep, baby girl."  Sarah smiled and  said,  "I will Daddy and I love you forever too."  Susie and Bill sat across the room and talked and watched Sarah sleep.  Susie said, "I think she had a wonderful day."  Bill said, "Yes I do too."  He looked over at his daughter, she was sleeping, hugged up to her new bear named Susie, he chuckled a little and said to Susie, "She really likes that bear, doesn't she?"  "Yes, she does," said Susie.  Bill said, "What does she mean about her doll looking like your mother?  She has never seen your mother." 

Susie said, "Well, you remember when her heart stopped last year when she was in here?"  "Yes," said Bill, "I could never forget that, why?"  "Well, after she came home, one afternoon we were talking and she told me that she had met Jesus, She said that she had gone to heaven and she saw us crying, she was sad.  She said He told her that she could stay with us a while if she wanted to.  And she told Him she wanted to stay."  Bill looked at Susie, amazed at the story he was hearing.

"But what does that have to do with your Mother?" He said.  "She said she met a beautiful lady and that she looked like an angel, and that her name was Doris. She told her she knew me and for her to tell me hello.  She said to tell me that she loved me and that she always has. Then she told Sarah to tell me if she goes to heaven to live, that she will take care of her, so for me not to worry.  That's when I knew that it was not just a story that she had made up."  Susie said, "Because she never knew anything about my Mother, especially her name, then today when she said that the angel doll looked like my Mother, it only made me believe even more that Sarah must of had a near death experience."
