miracle.

today our beautiful friends became parents.

for the second time.

for years we have earnestly prayed that her womb would hold a child, that their family would be blessed with a bigger family. we eargerly awaited to hear back and see if this was real, if she would finally become a mother of 2.

and sometimes i wish i never heard back. i wish i never knew the troubles the family had and the heartbreak of trying, and waiting, and hoping, and being broken.

but one day something changed.

on this day you were given a heartbeat. a hope. and since that day, my life has been better, and it isnt even my baby.

and the best part is that i just met him. i just watched him sleep and yawn and learn to move his fingers. i just saw a miracle.

not that seeing that belly grow month after month was no miracle, but seeing that boy, made is so real.

tonight, i saw Jesus.

i saw Him in the faces that stood around that room. i saw Him in the face of the new mother. i saw Him in this baby that has is an answer to many, many prayers.

thank you Jesus.

we are so excited for you Enniss'.
