So when our oldest daughter was born 7 years ago, we were over-joyed.and maybe a bit overwhelmed. Right after our daughter was born, I read an article in the newspaper that tugged at my heart and my postpartum hormones. That first year, the family was a single mother whose infant son was born just a few days before our daughter.
