A Prayer for Aaron

Dear God,

How do you pray for a baby who doesn't need it?
When I pray for my family, I want to include him.
Could You make sure he's met any family that we have up in heaven?
Would You introduce him to my friend's little ones who are there so they can play together?
What does he look like?
What is he like? I know he's happy but is he serious or silly?
Would You tell him some good stories about Ben, Ian, and I so he can know us?
I don't know how it all works in heaven but would you let him know we really wanted him?
What else can I ask? I know that he is happy and peaceful and safer than he would ever be down here. I thank you for taking care of him, and us.

Amen

Today is Aaron's due date. I can't help but wonder if he would be late like Ian or would he have been early? Would my labour have progressed or would I have needed another C-section?

I feel like I can let go now, though I don't really want to. He's in good hands but I still wish we could have known Aaron.
