Nothing Like An Unexpected Newborn

Some of the most wonderful surprises happen in the form of a human newborn. When they get here, life as we know it is meaningless, redundant, and absurd. Nothing is ever the same because there is another person, a unique life form. A baby breathes new life into a family, brings a new song never before heard. My mother, my daughter, and I were all blessed with an unexpected newborn. One of our most favorite blessings, the surprise of surprises, we have all concurred.
