Today in church I found out that an acquaintance of mine (and a friend of Neal and Blake) gave birth to her baby prematurely. There were a lot of medical complications that indicated that the baby would not make it and doctors had previously recommended that she terminate the pregnancy; she didn't. The baby lived for only a short time and was able to be baptized before she was taken to heaven. It's simultaneously a very sad and very happy story. What a blessing for the parents to be able to hold their little girl and baptize her, even if only for such a short time.
What I Learned: Henrietta was born alive and was baptized, thanks to the grace of God, before she was taken to forever home in heaven :)
