Life can throw you the most unexpected blows. So what do you do when it does? You get up, dust yourself off, and make a beautiful life out of it.

Sometimes God opens our wombs, other times he hand picks our blessings and drops them in our arms. This is the miracle of adoption. 

Postpartum Depression is as real as giving birth. Many women helplessly fall through the cracks and remain broken. But healing is attainable, and help is available. 

God, thank you for the one who came, and returned to you. And thank you for the one who stayed. 

Hospital negligence. A precious and special child. The denial, and the power of acceptance. 

There are heroes who don't wear capes. No one recognizes what it takes for them to merely exist. No one sees the sacrifices and the heavy crown they carry so gracefully.
