Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I had been up the majority of the night before with our five week old daughter. My sister-in-law was also on maternity leave at the time. Her daughter was born five days before mine. I remember that the house was always so quiet and boring, the baby slept wonderfully during the day. I would sit in front of the TV all morning with a cup of coffee trying to wake up. I turned on the TV that day and thought that my husband must have been watching some weird channel the night before after I'd gone to bed. What on earth was he watching?! Then I proceded to flip. Every channel was the same. I called my sister-in-law. She didn't believe it. A half an hour later she called back. I can't express the emotion that you feel when you have this little miracle in your arms and you realize that there are people on the planet that have no concept of the value of a human life. I couldn't help but think that those people that were dying right in front of us were babies at one time and their mothers would have just been beside themselves if they had known that something like this could happen to them one day.
