One day last week Carmen and I had a happy surprise in Queens. One of Carmen's clients came in just to say hello. This mom came into Carmen's center a couple of months ago wanting to have an abortion. Today, she is 4 months pregnant and happy as can be. She is graduating from high school this month and excited about starting college in the fall. Looking at this young mother, I would have never guessed she ever had wanted to destroy the life inside her. Her eyes shone with love when she talked about her baby. During my first week of work, this mom filled me with joy. Women like her are the reason I am here. I am here to help a girl's sorrow and fear turn to hope and joy. What a great job to have!
