I thought I wanted another daughter so M would have a sister to share her life secrets and giggles late into the night.
Today I saw my friend's beautiful, healthy, miracle son. I saw the ache for her daughter, but the complete joy in her son. The love of a mother for her children--one no longer here and one ever so present.
He is so perfect. 10 fingers, 10 toes, a little button nose, the sweetest little cry you've EVER heard. A sound that was so rare of their daughter.
And I realized that I would love a son as completely as I love M. As much as my friend loves her daughter and her son. A mother's love.
Praise God.

Fabulous news. So glad the sweet little one is doing well.
Pure sweetness. Glory to God for this little miracle boy, and for the precious life growing inside you.
