Contributed by Carl Greene on Dec 31, 2007

based on 4 ratings

| 3,167 views

Over the past several months I have come to realize a great appreciation for the miracle of birth. As Cora was going through her time of pregnancy I don’t know how many times the amazement hit me that she actually was carrying a human being inside of her. That was no potbelly.
