Psalm 127: 3-5
Children are a heritage of the Lord;
The fruit of thy womb is His reward.
Like the arrows in the hand of a warrior,
Blessed is the man that hath his quiver full of them.
Had a baby in the last 3 years?
Take the survey and let your birth experience be know by others...
let the numbers speak for themselves!!
