Snow Babies

Are you surprised to find out that you are as old as you are? Every time I have to state my current age, I gasp a little, but not as much as the little baby born the same age as her mother.

Yes, it is true. The baby’s embryo was frozen 24 years ago. You can read the full story here.

Basically, some other couple wanted a baby and froze extra embryos ‘just in case.’ They have their children now and it costs a bunch to keep the rest of the eggs frozen. Other people are taking advantage of that to get a baby.

Complicated isn’t it? These little frozen ones are called ‘snow babies.’  They wait in suspension and suspense to someday get to be born.

I don’t know where I stand on this whole confusion. I only know for sure that Jesus loves little babies and children.

People were also bringing babies to Jesus for him to place his hands on them. (Luke 18:15a, NIV)

Prayer-Father, the world is changing fast and furious. Morals require a lot of deep thinking on our part. Give us your wisdom, God for we have no other way to discern truth. Amen.
