Blessed!!

Today I heard some very sad news...

My brother has a co-worker who was pregnant with a boy. I was about 3 months ahead of her. A neighbor of my mothers gave us some of her boys extra clothes and I intern gave her some too. Well, she had her son 2 nights ago and now they are saying there may be something wrong. That he could have some mental disabilities. They are thinking the fetus "caught" something while in the 2nd trimester but Dr's aren't completely sure yet. I'm writing this and the baby could end up ok and I'm praying he will be.

I cried with my son after I learned about this woman I have never met. I KNOW how lucky I am to have my beautiful boy! He is the most precious thing in the whole world. Lots of things had to be in place for us to have him and God thought that we were special enough to care for and love him. When you're pregnant ALL you want is a healthy baby. You can wish and pray for a boy or a girl but in the end it doesn't matter as long as he/she is well. Thank you God for giving me a big healthy baby boy! And as tears roll down my face I pray for my brother's co-worker, that she will find the strength to endure lifes challenges because God doesn't present us with these challenges if he didn't think he could deal with them. I hope one day to meet her and her son!
