4The inspiration for this little book came after the birth of our first great grandchildren, twin boys, Levi and Mason. Early one morning, I began writing about these two wonderful gifts God provided for our granddaughter and her husband, as well as our entire family. Just a short time later, this little book came to life on paper. Knowing very well that every good and perfect gift is provided by God (James 1:17), this time of reflection, thankfulness and wonder led me to begin to write. What could the mystery of birth really be? Believing that God takes special care of His Little ones. If they could speak, how might their experience of birth be told from their perspective? It was then that I began to refer to these two boys as "The Littles", inspiring the name of this book, "The Adventures of The Littles - The Day of Birth". They embarked on an adventure that would take them from the Heavenly Father's place to the loving arms of their forever family.
