What a week it's been! Our newest grandchild was born, grandchild number six! As I look back on the years of infertility and miscarriage that our two oldest daughters went through, and the years that our youngest daughter wondered if she would ever meet the man she was to marry, I can say that God truly has done far over and above all that we dared to ask or think. Our oldest daughter and her husband have two miracle daughters after almost eleven years of fertility problems and three miscarriages. Our second born daughter and her husband have three miracle children, two via adoption and one God surprise biological child. Our youngest daughter married a wonderful man two years ago. Two days after their second anniversary, their son, our sixth grandchild and third grandson, was born.
When you read the paragraph above, there is no way for you to know what it was like to live though the years and years of praying and interceding for each of our children as they struggled through the pain of hope deferred and the grief of loss. There were many times when we wondered if we would ever see the answer to our and their heart cries. There were many times when we asked God why...
