Triplets

I had my first adoption experience with mulitple babies today. The triplets were born this morning after mom's water broke. They were a little under 6 weeks early but are doing great! Mom is doing excellent also! 2 boys and 1 girl. The boys weigh 4lb 9 oz and baby girl weighs 4lb 2 oz. Adoptive parents were there and adopting mom got to be in for C-section. Babies are in NICU of course but are doing good. 1st baby boy never needed oxygen but other boy and girl are needing a little help breathing. I have never seen so many nurses and doctors! It was a very neat experience getting to go to the NICU to see the babies. Please pray for these little miracles that they will continue to do well, be healthy and be able to go home soon. Also pray for birthparents and their family. It's never easy to see birth families grieve but it's awesome to witness that sacrifice they are able to make for their children. It's truly an act of love. Just a tiny glimpse of what it must have been like for our Heavenly Father. Last but not least please pray for the adoptive parents. What a challenge that lies ahead but one they will never regret or 2nd guess!
