Prayers for My Baby Girl - Tapa dura

"I must confess I was immediately drawn to the beautiful cover of this book. I was also a little torn because I can honestly say...what woman who has struggled with infertility really wants to do a book review on a book filled with pictures of sweet precious babies? I waited until my husband came home to open the book. I told him, let's look through this book together and dream about having a baby. We curled up on the couch together and turned each precious page. We smiled, we laughed, and we had tears in our eyes at times. "The pictures of the babies are heartwarming and photographer Julie Johnson must have had great delight in shooting pictures of these sweet babies. The prayers written by Angela Thomas definitely come from a mother's heart filled with love and special letters to God about a desire to be a good mom. I was reminded of the merciful God I serve and His Word brought great comfort to my heart. I would highly recommend this book to any mom, especially an expectant mom or new mom!" -Tammy "Young moms and dads will find Angela and Julie's books to be a source of encouragement, inspiration, and warm entertainment as they read through the prayers and enjoy Julie's beautiful photos of little boys and girls." -Dr. Michael B. Pawelke, Compass Point Bible Church
