A girl got up and bore her testimony today. She made me tear up/almost cry. We had two babies blessed today, and she mentioned that she had lost her baby over a year ago (the baby only lived for a couple of hours). She mentioned blessings & she mentioned the fact that because they are an eternal family, she will see her little one again.
As this lady bore her testimony, I sat there with my little Madi snuggled asleep. I thought how lucky I was to have 3 healthy children. I thought about how fortunate I was to never know what it's like to lose a baby. I thought about how grateful I am for the gospel and the fact that I am sealed to my husband & family for eternity. We will be together forever.

I know what you mean. There's a family in our ward who adopted an 18 month old girl from Thailand about the same time we got Gideon. Their process took over a year (they started trying to get her when she was 2 months old.) Late last year they found a tumor on her brain stem and it was malignant. Long story short for the last 8 months she's been through chemo, radiation and all kinds of craziness. I feel almost little guilty to have such a healthy happy baby and an easy adoption process!
