![]() By Kaycee Nilson Apr. 21, 2006 I recently became a Godmother to a beautiful eight-year-old girl by the name of Sophia. I have wanted to be her Godmother for so long that I couldn’t believe when her mother asked me to be this honored position in this young girl’s life. Sophia has the biggest brown eyes I have ever seen and she slightly resembles my oldest child. Her favorite thing is to paint my nails. Of course more polish gets on my finger than on the nail, but I wouldn’t have it any other way. She has a degenitive bone disorder in her ankle and foot, and has many operations to try to correct the problem. But no matter what the doctor does, they cannot seem to stop the disease. I love this little girl as if she was one of my own. And to watch her go through all this is just killing me. Why should a baby of 8 have to watch if she runs or jump rope or play like other 8 year-olds do? I guess that she is being tested by God to see just how strong she is. Just like I am being tested by God to see how strong of a woman I am. Last night, I got on my knees and I thanked God for bringing Sophia into my life. She needs a Godparent and God touched her mother’s heart to bring Dan and me into Sophia’s life as Godparents. We promise to watch over her and to be there when she needs us. For the more love you give out, the more love you receive. And in this case, I have so much love that I can have another child in my life. Sophia means the world to me and has for a long long time. Ever since I met her and saw the sunshine in her smile, I knew I would be in her life for a long time. Her smiles light the room like a bright ray of sunshine. Her laughter is that of bells ringing. She is an angel on earth, and she is in my life until the day I die. She is going to be so spoiled that her parents are going to regret making me her Godmother! I have always spoiled her even before I became her Godmother. I gave her my old makeup and some fingernail polish on birthday. I even bought her some Lip Smackers. This little angel is going to be in my life and I can’t be happier. My prayer for Sophia is as follows: God sent you to me, so that neither one of us will be sad no more. We have the same things in common and I love you as if you were my own flesh and blood. When you think you are falling, I will be there to catch you. When you think you are alone, you are not. When you think the world hates you, there is someone that loves you. When you think that you have no place to go, you have a home. We love you Sophia, our Angel sent by God. ------------ About the author: Kaycee Nilson has completed her first novel, "Night Falls on Chicago."
