So I've never posted a video before, so this might take a few attempts. [I guess this disclaimer is more to motivate me into actually trying more than to disclaim anything.] But I saw this music video on one of my friend's blogs and it's really stuck with me since I watched it, so I thought I'd share it.
I don't want to get all personal or anything--I try to keep my blog casual, mostly, otherwise Sam might not want me to blog at all--but this video really touched me, because it pertains to something really close to my heart. I feel like there's a lot of people in the world who have children that take them for granted. A week-long trip to Disney World is sure to convince anyone of that. [heehee] But there's also a lot of people in the world who would do anything--spend thousands of dollars, spend hours and hours on their knees praying, literally anything--for children, so I'm really glad this video shows how precious children are and how they're something to be treasured and loved always. All I can really add to what the singer [Kellie Coffey, according to YouTube] says is, "Amen."
Warning: It might make you cry. It sure made me cry.
P.S. Sorry if this is way TMI. I usually keep these kinds of things to myself, but I just couldn't with this. Guess you'll just have to forgive me.

This is definitely not TMI. I saw this on another blog, and it made me cry. So, there, you're not the only one!
I can't say I enjoyed it, because I cried the entire video, but I am glad you shared it, and I think I'll put it on my blog, too. Too many people do take it for granted. I did before I "grew up." Jill is named after her aunt that was a stillborn, and every time I say her name I am reminded of the daughter my mother-in-law was not able to raise.
I'm glad you don't mind and appreciated it. I cry every time I watch it. Haha.

Thanks, Sarah! You and Jeff will be awesome parents, too. I'm excited enough to be an aunt for a second time--Michelle's due soon! And I'll have a nephew!
