I found this and I love this song.

I Will Carry You

There were photographs I wanted to take
Things I wanted to show you
Sing sweet lullabies, wipe your teary eyes
Who could love you like this?

People say that I am brave but I'm not
Truth is I'm barely hanging on
But there's a greater story
Written long before me
Because He loves you like this

So I will carry you
While your heart beats here
Long beyond the empty cradle
Through the coming years
I will carry you
All my life
And I will praise the One Who's chosen me
To carry you

Such a short time
Such a long road
All this madness
But I know
That the silence
Has brought me to His voice
And He says...

I've shown her photographs of time beginning
Walked her through the parted seas
Angel lullabies, no more teary eyes
Who could love her like this?

I will carry you
While your heart beats here
Long beyond the empty cradle
Through the coming years
I will carry you
All your life
And I will praise the One Who's chosen Me
To carry you

That was a amazing video and song, and although I have not gone through what you are I am following you and your family in prayers and like the song GOD has a plan and reason. Hold strong in your belief to carry your baby. Blessings to you.

Holly, you will treasure this time you carry Carleigh under your heart & til the end of time you will carry her in your heart.  It is never easy to understand when something like this happens to a child, but you are right, God has chosen you.  Sending love, prayers & positive thoughts your way.

Oh, Holly, such a moving video and such a beautiful expression of the choice you have made. I am struck by the words, "People say that I am brave but I'm not, Truth is I'm barely hanging on" because although I'm sure you are "barely hanging on" it's still such a brave thing to do. It would have been so much easier to run to the abortionist, and you could have justified that decision, but instead you chose to let God's will be done and give Carleigh as much life as she can have because her life does matter to God and to you.

That was beautiful.

You are one of the "strongest" women I know.

I saw a story about this a while back and thought you may be interested.

I know it's awful to think about, but a lot of moms have done it and maybe it's something you may want to do after your little beauty is born.

Take care Holly. I am thinking of you.
