Please say a prayer of strength over these little girls.

I sat in the hospital and cried over all they’ve lost. No one should grow up without a mom. A mother is one of the greatest treasures this side of heaven.  Today, I am extra thankful for my mama (blurry picture but who cares!) and every other mom on earth. I know the days are long and hard, but your jobs as “mommy” matter so much. You’ve been given a hard task, but you’ve got this.

Let’s never forget to be thankful for each breath because some aren’t so lucky.
