A mother's heart...
This past week has shaken me as a mother. Now that I have a child of my own my entire world and perspective has changed. On Monday, June 11th, two of my dear friends welcomed babies into the world. One friend struggled through a rough delivery to welcome a 10 pound beautiful baby girl. Seriously, that baby is beautiful! The whole family was waiting for that sweet girl to arrive. Her nursery was ready, her brother was ready, and momma was ready for sure. It was such an exciting time in the life of their family. But down the hall, another sweet momma had delivered a sweet baby boy, who had a much different fate. The sweet boy had received a fatal diagnosis during the pregnancy.
