The day thatI found out your mom was pregnant with you, I wasn't too thrilled because our living conditions weren't the best for us so we sure didn't need someone as innocent as you around reminding us of our short-comings. What I would soon realize was that you would remind me of everything but... You were a tiny replica of me, born into the same conditions from a different womb. Same father, same strength, same joy but soo much different than me. I would later learn of a courage more courageous than mine, a love more loving than mine, and a life much more promising than mine. The doctors nor your mother gave you the fighting chance that you deserved but that doesn't mean that they meant to hurt you, they just didn't know how to be hopeful about the things that God placed inside of you but I think that's why He gave you me but most importantly, that's why He gave me YOU!
