My rewarding sacrifice

Shortly before my husband and I were married, his sister died after giving birth. She left behind a newborn son and a three year old daughter. I went from planning a wedding and working, to moving in with my future in-laws and now becoming a mom to two tiny souls. I raised them for the six months prior to our wedding until their dad was emotionally able to take them back home and care for them. They always told people their birth mom was watching them from heaven and I was their “second” mom and I was given a place of honor at the daughter’s high school graduation. They are now married and parents themselves. I will never regret sacrificing those six months for either of them.
