Dear God...

by Marian


As he watched his new family getting ready for Christmas…the boy spoke…

Dear God,
 - 
I don't know if you 'member me, but my name's Vin Tanner and the last time
I talked to ya my ma was mighty sick. I asked if you could please not make
her hurt no more. That were 3 years ago and I was sooo mad at ya, I said I
hated ya, 'cause after I asked ya my ma went a way for good. I didn't want ma
ta go away. I miss her sooo much but now I got me a pa an' a Buck an' I just
want her ta know that I'm ok . She don't need ta worry 'bout me no more.
 - 
Unca Josiah told me 'bout your little boy. Real sorry he had to die like
that. Hope he's happy now being with his ma.
 - 
I thank ya God for givin' me JD and a new pa… Two new pa's. Well I got
ta go now. We's goin' to get a Christmas tree just wanted ta thank ya for
takin' my mama an' keepin' her safe until I can watch out fer her.
 -
Merry Christmas.

The little boy stood to walk away, stopped and turned back saying,

Oh 
yeah. I don't hate at ya no more.
