The Day You Were Created

The book The Day You Were Created attempts to portray the child's anticipation of receiving a family from the Creator when first selected from the shelf of hearts. Just as parents wonder what their child's hair or eye color will be in the initial stages of pregnancy, the book focuses on the child's anticipation of what kind of family the Creator will choose for them. Will Mommy's hair be long or short? What color will it be? Will my daddy be tall or short? Will he have a mustache? What color will his eyes be? As we all know, our love for our children is unconditional. Holding them for the first time is priceless, and watching them grow brings many memories to cherish. But wouldn't it be interesting to know what thoughts might cross their mind when they are introduced to the family the Creator made for them?
