Visited By An Angel

When I was a baby, my family didn't have much. We were currently living in an apartment in Minnesota, where we're from.

One night when my parents left their door open in our two bedroom apartment. My parents woke up to see a white light suddenly gliding down the hallway towards the room my brother and I shared. Obviously, they were very uneasy to say the least, but they say they felt calm in a way. They got up, and ran the two steps to my room and saw a woman bending over my cradle. She was illuminating the entire room, and was looking down and reaching to me. Then as suddenly as she appeared, she disappeared.

In my family, we know it was an angel that visited me because of the way she looked down on me, and my parents felt it the moment they saw her. They say she was beautiful, and it's a story that is one of my favorites.
