My rainbow story

JL

I don’t know where to post this story, but I want to tell someone, since only my husband and I know about it. I’ve never told any one else.

In winter of 2015 my husband and I suffered a miscarriage. It was very hard, but we got through it. The following year, fall of 2016 we found out that we were expecting once again. Our healthy son was born in June of 2017.

So now for the interesting part..

Exactly one week before our son was born, we had a very last minute maternity photo shoot. Everything was going well, aside from a little rain here and there (I should mention we were outdoors) We we’re finishing up and started to walk back towards the cars when the photographer noticed a rainbow in the distance. Being very sweet she got her camera back out, and insisted that we get a couple photos with the rainbow.

Here’s one of the rainbow photos..

It wasn’t until our son was a couple months old when I found out about the term ‘Rainbow baby’. You could imagine my shock when I remembered the rainbow that appeared at the end of our maternity shoot. I still get chills when I look at this picture. I can’t help but feel like our sons older sibling was there with us.

Does anyone else find this interesting?
