He neither tumbled, wheel over wheel, nor slammed into the window or door. Seemingly, an angel, placed the child, gently, very gently on the landing floor, to the relief of his caretaker, who’d been as careful as she could possibly be. Like a storm, the rush came suddenly… Kids, indeed, are that quick! She, the caretaker, undid the gate while keeping an eye on her charges. With one mistake, it could have been curtains, it could have been a late and sorrowful hour, but for God’s guardian entrusted with his saints. 5/27/2023

Everyone has a guardian angel. We should think of it more often.

I shouldn't presume... Do you have NYC's 'Guardian Angels' in mind here at all?! Leader used to be named De Silva, as I recall. Ran for Mayor once. Got about 12% of the vote... ~ gw

God’s angel army trumps NYC GA’s every time and they show up any and every where. ;)
