Dear God,

I know this may be a strange request to most but I would really love it if you would bring me a new friend from Utah. There is a baby in someones tummy that needs to come to Mississippi so we can be forever friends and there is a mommy here that needs a new baby...a whole, whole bunch! You know who it is because you know EVERYTHING!! I want to pray for a few things. Here they are:

1. I pray for peace and understanding in YOUR will beyond all comprehension for everyone. That's kind of hard for most of us humans. We have to trust in you and give it all to you and that is hard for the big people. For me, I just do what I'm told(for right now anyway!)

2. I pray for a happy, healthy friend. I want to run and jump and play with this new friend and I would like for them to have a healthy body and a healthy spirit. We have a lot of playing to do on Sophie's playground and we want to swing high...so high on Nelson's swings!

3. I pray for his/her new mommy(you know who it is) to not be scared. To have fear is to not have trust and we HAVE to trust you. It's in the rule book.

4. Be with my new friends birth mommy so that she has a peace and understanding beyond all comprehension. Give her heart the right answers and the right direction so that she will have a life filled with your love. It's good stuff! Please give her an easy pregnancy so she can bring my new friend in to the world without complications. Whew! These are some big words for a little girl!!

5. I pray that you bring their child(whomever it is) to my mommy's best friend. She has the capacity to love in such a huge way. There is a child out there that needs her and she needs them to help make her life (almost) complete again. Give her faith...Give her peace...and please, please please give her a baby so she can love him or her like my mommy loves me.

I know this is alot of stuff to ask for but I am told that you are better than Santa, better than the Easter bunny and even better than my mommy and daddy(I know that is REALLY hard to believe) and that YOU can deliver! Thank you for giving your son for us. According to my mommy, that is a love that surpasses all. Thank you for taking care of Sophie, Nelson and my Grandmother. One day, after I have walked your walk, I will meet them in your playground to play with for eternity. It will be a while because I have lots of important stuff to do here on this earth. Please walk with me on my journey and if you can spare a wish for little Landry, please send me a friend from Utah.

With lots of love,

Landry
