My friend, Elena (by Mama)

I have so many friends through my struggle to become a Mom. Elena is one such friend. Her struggle was harder than mine and was filled with more heartache than anyone should have to bear. She is a mama to 5 children and 1 incredible husband. Unfortunately, three of her children are not here with her, but are held very close to her heart. I learned last night about some horrible news that will once again test Elena. Really, though. Hasn't she had enough? Look at this lovely couple. Their strength is awe-inspiring and will get them through the coming days.

Have you ever seen a more beautiful smile?

Today, Gabrielle and I visited Elena and her family. Elena's husband and children need her. Please give her the strength to fight and win.
