Mom I'M Pregnant

“Mom…. I’m Pregnant!” From the time I held my baby in my arms… I made a vow to “protect her from all harm.” She was indeed a wonderful bundle of joy… And during her life, has been a gift for us to enjoy. She's been the focus of much of our attention, Trying to provide for her “timely” correction. As a father, many thoughts entered my mind… I wanted to be attentive to her, patient and kind. As she's gone through her teenage years… I thought of what perhaps is a parent’s #1 “fear.” Then one day... “Mom I’m pregnant” were spoken... At first, my heart was sad and “broken.” “I didn’t raise her to be “crazy and wild…” “How could this happen to a wonderful child?” I realized that in spite of everything parent’s will do. There’s no telling what their children will put them through. I gave her a hug and all of the support I could give… Everything she’s been through… God will forgive! With all that has happened in her life… One day she’ll make someone a wonderful wife! Dear Lord, please help my daugher to see... How precious she is to her mother and me!
