“it’s a boy!”, Those are the words every father yearns to hear. For me, my son was born 23 weeks early. How to cope with a tramatized wife and a pre-born baby, well you pray. My father told me that if you only pray when you need something it won’t work. So i pray now, every morning, every time I eat, and when i rest my head on my pillow. I pray. For those who don’t have as much as me, for ones that have more and are still greedy. I pray. My son, he died yesterday, and yet, I pray. I light a candle every time we eat dinner. It’s set at the middle of our table, showing that he is still the center of our lives.
