Double Blessing

Blessing we don't see ahead of time

Life is what mom wanted to give
And from within he tries to live.
The doctor’s try so hard to win
But something’s wrong from within.

After many hours of sweat
And pain that really can’t be met,
The baby’s born wrong side up
Over flowing is her cup.

Now she’s resting thinking it’s done
And very happy with her son.
But then the pains come once more.
Again they roll her out the door.

She screams and cries and fears she’ll die
And looks to heaven asking, “God Why?”
But God doesn't take life He only gives
Within her womb a baby lives.

Hours later she rests again
But now she has two little men.
A double blessing she has bore
Quite a life she has in store.

Blessings from above are many
Do you feel you haven’t any?
Life is such that we must give
Before we ever learn to live.

"We are so tempted in life to blame God for everything instead of trusting Him that in the end we will know that everything that happens will help us in some way or another. Some learn right away as in this poem, but others will never know till they have a chance to ask the Lord in heaven. Trusting Him is the Key to Happiness."

TWO!!! WOW!!! This was truly a 'Double Blessing' from God. Being a Father who's seen three of my four children born, I can testify without a doubt that there isn't much more that's much more miraculous than the birth of a child and having a newborn to take care of and to nurture definitely has a special way of giving one a new perspective on life.

God bless you and thank you for the memories and for sharing,
