My life will never be the same again

My life will never be the same again
by Cheryl Magnussen
who dedicates this to her daughters Allie & Angel


God made a living miracle

with his very own paintbrush.

As each stroke of His hand

touched upon the canvas

He created a child;

one that He loved so very dearly,

one that He knew would change the hearts

of everyone who took the time to know her,

a child who would show this world

countless unknown miracles,

….a child with special needs.

God must love me so very much

as He trusted in me

to become the mother

of this sweet angel child.

In doing so

He gave me a new life.

One that slows the clocks of time,

teaches me to pause and smell the dandelions,

shows me there is beauty in a goat

and has me catching snakes to revel in their colors;

a life that grants me lessons in respect,

true courage, humanity and advocacy.

God rescued me through this child

and ever so thankfully…..

my life will never be the same again.
