a newborn's coversation with God

i got this forwarded to me in my email, and thought it was just lovely. i dont know who originally penned it, but i wanted to share it:

A newborn's conversation with God....

A baby said to God, 'They tell me that You are sending me to earth very soon, but how am I going to live there being so small and helpless?' God said, 'Your angel will be waiting for you and will take care of you.'
The baby further inquired, 'But tell me, here in Heaven, I don't have to do anything but sing and smile to be happy.' God said, 'Your angel will sing for you and will also smile for you, and you will feel your angel's love and be very happy.'
Again the child asked, 'How am I going to be able to understand when people talk to me if I don't know the language?' God said, 'Your angel will tell you the most beautiful and sweet words you will ever hear, and with much patience and care, your angel will teach you how to speak.'
The baby then asked God, 'What am I going to do when I want to talk to You?' God said, 'Your angel will place your hands together and will teach you how to pray.'
The baby asked, 'Who will protect me?' God said, 'Your angel will protect you even if it means risking its life.'
'But I will always feel sad,' said the baby, 'because I will not see You anymore.' God said, 'Your angel will always talk to you about Me and will teach you the way to come back to Me even though I will always be next to you.'
At that moment there was much peace in Heaven, but voices from earth could be heard, and the child hurriedly asked God, 'If I am to leave now, please tell me my angel's name.'
God said, 'You will simply call her 'MOM'.'
