Letter from GOD
A little girl named Meredith had a 14 year old dog named Abbey, who died
last month (8/23).
This story is told by her mom.
The day after Abbey died, my 4 year old daughter, Meredith, was crying and
talking about how much she missed Abbey. She asked if we could write a
letter to God so that when Abbey got to heaven, God would recognize her.
She dictated and I wrote:
"Dear God,
Will you please take special care of our dog, Abbey? She died yesterday and
is in heaven. We miss her very much. We are happy that You let us have her
as our dog even though she got sick.
She likes to play with balls and swim before she got sick. I am sending some
pictures of her so that when you see her in heaven you will know she is our
special dog. But I really do miss her.
Love,
Meredith Claire
p.s.: Mommy wrote this for me after I told her the words.
We put the letter in an envelope with 2 pictures of Abbey, and addressed it to
God/Heaven. We put our return address on it. Then Mer stuck some stamps on
the front (because, as she said, it may take lots of stamps to get a letter
all the way to heaven) and that afternoon I let her drop it into the letter
box at the post office.
For a few days, she would ask if God had gotten the letter yet. I told her
that I thought He had.
Yesterday, for Labor Day, we took the kids to Peoria to a natural
history museum.
When we got back, there was a package wrapped in gold paper on our front
porch.
Curious, I went to look at it. It had a white card on the front and said "To:
Meredith" in an unfamiliar hand.
Meredith took it in and opened it. Inside was a book by Mr. Rogers, 'When a
Pet Dies'. Taped to the inside front cover was the letter we had written to
God, in its opened envelope. On the opposite page, one of the pictures of
Abbey was tapped under the words "For Meredith."
We turned to the back cover, and there was the other picture of Abbey, and
this handwritten note on pink paper:
"Dear Meredith,
I know that you will be happy to know that Abbey arrived safely and soundly
in Heaven! Having the pictures you sent to me was such a big help. I
recognized
Abbey right away.
You know, Meredith, she isn't sick anymore. Her spirit is here with me--just
like she stays in your heart--young and running and playing. Abbey
loved being your
dog, you know. Since we don't need our bodies in heaven, I don't have any
pockets! -- So I can't keep your beautiful letter. I am sending it to you
with the pictures so that you will have this book to keep and remember
Abbey.
One of my angels is taking care of this for me. I hope the little book
helps.
Thank you for the beautiful letter. Thank your mother for sending it. What
a wonderful mother you have! I picked her especially for you.
I send my blessings every day and remember that I love you very much. By the
way, I am in heaven and wherever there is love.
Love, God, and the special angel who wrote this after God told her the
words.
