You are a strong woman. Just remember, we make a plan, God makes a better one, even if we don't understand it at first.

I'm sorry that happened to you. I am, however, very impressed with how quickly you seemed to recover. You're certainly are a woman of substance, Miss Jennifer.

And I'm happy you have your four children and got a boy the last time. Having a son is wonderful in your old age. ;) My gggrandmother wasn't so lucky. Both she and her last baby died because of this. We are so fortunate to live in the 21st century where women don't have to die anymore because of hemorrhaging. And remember, you can always adopt. Lots of little ones out there needing good homes like yours. :) Jen, I’m glad you survived. And I’m happy you have your four children and got a boy the last time.

Beautiful, yet heart wrenching post Jen. Though I am sure you have heard it before.....if you know there are more children for your family, adoption is a difficult but equally beautiful process to build a family.
