Miracles

Yesterday a friend of mine lost her baby. She was 27 weeks pregnant and that was after years of trying and three miscarriages in the past year. I feel so heartbroken for her. This tragedy made me think of my own sweet children and how blessed I am that they were all born healthy and strong! And it doesn't matter that it seems like a cliche, it's true that every birth is a miracle. I think I realize that even more because of going through a miscarriage of my own. I am not sure why I am blessed enough to have three healthy children of my own but I am grateful and will hug and kiss them more now because of that.
