Before a baby's first breath, there is a story-one written in the stars.

Before I Was Yours is a gentle, heavenly journey told through the eyes of a child who remembers where they came from. It invites parents to imagine how their little ones lived before they met- in Heaven surrounded by angels, loved ones, and the warmth of Jesus's care.

Filled with tender imagery and soft rhyme, this story reminds us that love begins long before birth-and never truly ends. It speaks to families who have loved and longed, to those who've hoped through heartache and still believed. It's a reminder that every child is a miracle, and every moment of love is a piece of Heaven on Earth.

May these pages remind each little one that they were always loved-first by Heaven, and now by those who hold them.

A celebration of faith, connection, and the unbreakable bond between Heaven and home, Before I Was Yours is a keepsake to be read, cherished, and passed down for generations.
