Rainbow Baby

I saw the reference to a “Rainbow Baby” for the first time about a month or so ago.  It’s the name given to the baby born after losing a child.  The rainbow that comes after a storm.  Immediately it struck home to me.  Luke is, in every sense that is possible, our rainbow baby.  He brings so much joy to our family…his name means “Bringer of Light” after all!  He is the #3 that I never thought we’d have… the perfect pot of gold and sweet little reminder of God’s redeeming love.

Its a good thing you said he because I would have thought he was a girl. He sure looks like one with that hair.

Oh how I prayed for your "Rainbow Baby". Thankful for the sweet way God answered those prayers.
