October 5 - Today, God told me, my life begins. He said He has plans for me in this family. I can't wait to find out what they are. My parents do not know it yet, I am as small as a seed of an apple, but it is I already. And I am to be a girl. I shall have blond hair and blue eyes. Just about everything is settled though, even the fact that I will love flowers. I can't wait to surprise them. I wonder what name they'll give me. 

October 19 - I thought I heard someone tell my mom today that I am not a real person yet, that only my mother exists. I must have heard wrong, noone could actually think that way. After all, how else did they begin their life? But I am a real person, just as a small crumb of bread is yet truly bread. My mother is. And I am. Once they can hear my heart beat, my mom will show them that I'm real. 

October 23 - My mouth is just beginning to open now. I can't wait to show mom and dad. When they take a picture of me in here, I'll show them how I can open it. I'll put my thumb in my mouth. Just think, in about a year or so I shall be laughing and then talking. I know what my first word will be: MAMA. 

October 25 - My heart began to beat today all by itself. From now on it shall gently beat for the rest of my life without ever stopping to rest! And after many years it will tire. It will stop, and then I shall die. And then I will see the Lord again and He will tell me how my life was used to affect others. Maybe one day I'll be the person taking pictures of mommies tummies so they can see how we live in here. Or maybe one day, I'll be at the right place at the right time and save someone's life. 

November 2 - I am growing a bit every day. My arms and legs are beginning to take shape. But I have to wait a long time yet before those little legs will take me to my mother's arms and before these little arms will be able to gather flowers and embrace my father. 

November 12 - Tiny fingers are beginning to form on my hands. Funny how small they are! I'll be able to stroke my mother's hair with them. 

November 20 - It wasn't until today that the doctor told mom that I am living here under her heart. Oh, how happy she must be! Are you happy mom? I'll be careful in here because I never want to break your heart. 

November 25 - Mom and dad are probably thinking about a name for me. But they don't even know that I'm a little girl. I think I like the name Christina. I'm getting so big already. 

December 10 - My hair is growing. It is smooth and bright and shiny. I wonder what kind of hair mom has. Maybe one day we can braid each other's hair. 

December 13 - I am just about able to see. It is dark around me. When mom brings me into the world it will be full of sunshine and flowers. But what I want more than anything is to see my mom. How do you look, mama? Do you look like your mom? Did you wonder what she looked like when you were my age? I don't need to see you, I love you already! 

December 24 - I wonder if mom hears the whispering of my heart? My heart is so strong and healthy. It beats so evenly: tup-tup, tup-tup. You'll have a healthy little daughter, mom! I'm so excited about being with you and dad, mom, that I can't keep still! I have butterflies in my tummy. Can you feel me fluttering around yet mom? 

December 28 - Today an angel came. I told her, "I bet my mommy is as beautiful as you are." She wanted me to go somewhere with her. But I told her I couldn't cause mommy would miss me and worry about me. And I told her that I would never break her heart. I told the beautiful angel that I had a lot of kisses and hugs to give to my mom and dad. But she said something mean, mom. She said you didn't want me! I asked her why she would say something so mean? She said, "Today your mother killed you!" I said but God gave me life, he gave me as a gift to my mom and dad. She said, "but man took that gift away! Your mother was deceived into believing that you didn't really exist." That's not true, is it mom? ... mom?? .....mama???. ....MAMA!!!!!!
 
 

When my oldest daughter was in high school, one of her friends gave her a sheet of paper with this on it. A few months later, that same friend became pregnant and her mother made her have an abortion. To me, pro-choice means you have the right to choose how and when you want to have sex, not whether or not to kill a child. You have the choice to use protection or not. The child becomes a result of the free choice you made to have sex. This is the only situation I know of where, when you feel like you've made the wrong choice, murder is acceptable. Your only choices in this situation should be to raise your child or let someone else raise your child, murder should never be a choice. At least if the child is put up for adoption, one day you have the choice to meet him/her. If you kill your child you've deprived yourself of the free choice you so want to have. Just like abortion clinics deprive you of free choice, because they only give you their version of the pregnancy. If you really want free choice, then get information from both sides, otherwise, you're just leaving yourself with one option and not a choice. Listen to the abortion clinics tell you it's nothing but a blob of tissue, then go to a real doctor and get a sonogram and see the life inside you and the little heart beating and decide for yourself if that heart beat is just a blob of tissue and remember everyone in this world arrived the same way. Can you imagine yourself being a senseless blob of tissue?  Can you ever imagine that at one time you had no spirit of being?  God said that before He formed you in the womb, he knew you.  In the Bible, a child is looked on as a gift from God. Killing a child in a womb and killing people in a clinic with a bomb are both sins in God's eyes, neither one is acceptable to Him nor does He place one sin above the other.  Below are a few Scriptures that prove God acknowledged life in the womb: 

...The Lord hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. Isaiah 49:1

Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth from the womb I sanctified thee,... Jeremiah 1:5

And it came to pass, that, when Elizabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the babe leaped in her womb;... Luke 1:41

If men strive, and hurt a woman with child, so that her fruit depart from her,... he shall surely be punished.... Exodus 21:22 (This scripture deals with second party interference of a woman and her child, ie., abortion or someone causing a woman to have a miscarriage.)
