Tissue

I stumbled upon this on YouTube yesterday. Now let me first say that this is one of the reasons Nathan continually threatens to cancel our internet. Let me warn you that you will cry. The little baby, Ella Rose, was born at just 21 weeks. They could not stop labor and an infection developed. When this mother gave birth to her baby, she knew she had only minutes with her daughter. While my heart was just breaking into pieces, I noticed something. This family was smiling. They weren't focused on anything but enjoying every precious moment with their tiny baby girl. It was just so inspiring how much strength this family had to set aside their mourning to celebrate new life, even if for only 20 minutes. So... if you watch it, make sure you have a tissue! {I could only watch it one time through.}
