My Little Brother Miracle

By Aiden Kurian Uthup

I always wanted a little brother.Every night, I would pray, “Dear God, please give me a little brother. I promise I will take care of him and play with him every day.”

My mother was praying too, but she wanted a baby girl.

One day, my Amma’s tummy started growing. I was so excited! I would talk to the baby every day.

Finally, the big day arrived. My mom went to the hospital.I stayed with my Ammachi, Appacha, Ammamma, and Ammachen. I was a little worried but happy.

Then my father came out of the room holding a baby and said,“It’s a boy!”

Yes, my little brother is here!

I met my little brother. He was so cute. We named him Alex

My mom was happy, even though she had wanted a girl.We play together, share toys, and have so much fun.

I’m so happy I have a little brother. Thank you, God, for listening to my prayers.
