Years later, our home is loud, messy, and full of love.
The laughter of nine children fills every corner. Sometimes, when I watch them play, I think back to that hospital room — to the fear, the prayers, and the moment my world stopped.
People still ask about the tenth baby.
I always smile and say, “The tenth one wasn’t meant to live — but it taught me how precious the others truly are.”
Because sometimes, miracles aren’t perfect. Sometimes they come wrapped in pain and loss. But they remind you that even when life doesn’t go as planned, love always finds a way.
