Once upon a time there was a child ready to be born. So one day he asked God, “They tell me you are sending me to earth tomorrow but how am I going to live there being so small and helpless？”
God replied,” Among the many angels, I chose one for you. She will be waiting for you and will take care of you.”
But the child wasn‘t sure he really wanted to go. “But tell me, here in Heaven, I don‘t do anything else but sing and smile, that‘s enough for me to be happy.”
”Your angel will sing for you and will also smile for you every day. And you will feel your angel‘s love and be happy.”
”And how am I going to be able to understand when people talk to me, “the child continued, “if I don‘t know the language that men talk？”
God patted him on the head and said, “Your angel will tell you the most beautiful and sweet words you will ever hear, and with much patience and care, your angel will teach you how to speak.”
”And what am I going to do when I want to talk to you？”
But God had an answer for that question too.”Your angel will place your hands together and will teach you how to pray.”
”I‘ve heard that on earth there are bad men, who will protect me？”
”Your angel will defend you even if it means risking her life！”
”But I will always be sad because I will not see you anymore,”the child continued warily.
God smiled on the young one. “Your angel will always talk to you about me and will teach you the way for you to come back to me, even though I will always be next to you.”
At that moment there was much peace in Heaven, but voices from earth could already be heard. The child knew he had to start on his journey very soon. He asked God one more question, softly,”Oh God, if I am about to leave now, please tell me my angel‘s name.”
God touched the child on the shoulder and answered,”Your angel‘s name is not hard to remember. You will simply call her Mommy.”

从前有一个孩子即将出世。因此有一天他问上帝，“他们告诉我，明天你将要把我送到地球，但我这么小和无助要怎么生活呢？”
上帝回答说，“在众多的天使中，我特别为你挑了一位。她将会等待你并照顾你。”
但孩子不知道他是否真的想去地球。”但告诉我，在天堂这里，我除了唱歌和微笑，不用做任何事，这就足以让我感到幸福了。”
“你的天使会为你唱歌，每天给你微笑。你会感受到你的天使的爱然后感到幸福
“当有人对我说什么我该怎么能够理解，”孩子继续说，“如果我不懂他们说的语言，？”
上帝拍拍他的头说，“你的天使会告诉你你将永远听到的最美丽和甜蜜的话,你的天使会以极大的耐心和关怀教你怎样说话。”
“当我想和你说话的时候,我要做什么？”
但上帝对这个问题也有回答。“你的天使会把你的双手放在一起，教你如何祈祷。”
“我听说地球上有坏人，谁来保护我呢？”
“你的天使会保护你，即使冒着生命危险！”
“但是我会很悲伤，因为我再也见不到你了，”小孩小心翼翼说道。
上帝微笑着对着孩子说。”你的天使会告诉你关于我的事情，教你回到我身边的方法，尽管我会一直在你身边。”
此时，天堂是如此的宁静，不过已经可以听到来自地球的声音。孩子知道他很快将开始他的旅程。他又轻轻地问上帝一个问题，“上帝啊，如果我现在将要离开，请告诉我我的天使的名字。”
上帝把手放在小孩的肩上，答道，“你的天使的名字并不难记。你可以简单的叫她妈妈。”
