who are gro...As the fathere of 11 healthy children <br />who are grown and quite a distance into<br />their own families, I have a depth of<br />love for each one of them and their <br />children that defies adequate expression.<br />My wife and I lost two in miscarriage, <br />one undefineable and the other a ten week <br />old little boy. To face a birth of one's<br />own disfigured and medically challenged <br />child is as searing a blow as I could <br />imagine. That my tenth child will experience this with her seventh child is at the same<br />time a cross of undefinable emotion as <br />well as a blessing of incredible love <br />from God. In the old testament the <br />number seven is a special number and <br />this child is a special child. Just think,<br />this child will NEVER commit a sin. Baptism brings the newborn into the folds of the <br />church and sin will never darken that <br />soul's door. A Saint forever for whatever longevity <br />He grants. Then, admission <br />to Heaven so as to intercede for the rest<br />of us before His throne. My daughter has strength and <br />beauty of soul for which I give inadequate thanks to God, profusely. In so saying, hugs and tears will share time <br />together as will joy in having knowledge<br />of the presence of a true saint in the <br />family, right from the Baptismal waters. Somehow, the <br />body will rejuvenate and the stretch marks will disappear although <br />lactation might be somewhat uncomfortable<br />at the outset. I support my girl with<br />prayers, love and appreciation for the<br />joy she has brought to me in my journey.<br />I love you sweet. DadAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
