Being able to see Heathers little Arayla be born was truly an answer to my prayers. Sometimes we don't even realize that God is listening to us, when all the sudden the desire we haven't even taken to the lord purely because we think it impossible, the lord makes it possible.

For me, it was my desire to be there for my sister that he heard. For many months I had an ache to be there with her at the hospital when she delivered. Thinking that this was impossible I would quickly push away my feelings for fear I would hurt to much if I hoped and it didn't come true. The day that Heathers watter broke Mom called me and told me what happened. She said she was taking the first flight out to be with her. I told her to call me when she got there and hung up.After hanging up I had a strong feeling "Go with her." I couldn't believe that God was telling me to go with my mother. How? Seems to always follow when God tells us to do something we see as impossible. Having faith I went to work.

It was truly a miracle! in a matter of an hour I was able to buy a ticket that "happened" to be the last seat available. Find people to help out when done was working which "happened" to be a week that was really light with only a couple of shifts. Which as you all know is not usually the case. So I hopped on the plane with my Mom and I was able to be with my sister who has always been one of the most important people in my life. My prayers were answered. I feel so much love from my Heavenly Father. I also learned a very important lesson. God wants us to talk to him about everything! From now on I will not decide to pray for only what I think God will think of as important but I go to him for everything.

I love you Heather. Thank you for letting me be with you for such an amazing moment in your life, and thank you for being my sister.
