I had to run to the store for pet stuff the other day, and I noticed that one of the young women who works there looked different. I'm in there all of the time and we chat, and so I knew that she was pregnant with twins. When I saw her the other day though, her pregnancy belly was gone, and I thought maybe she had lost the babies.

I wasn't sure if I should say anything and so did a quick prayer and felt a positive nudge, and so I gently asked her how she was doing and that I hoped she didn't think I was being too forward, but that I'd noticed the change and was concerned. She opened up and shared with me that the babies came very early and are in the hospital for awhile, but that they are doing good.
I was so overcome with gratitude and emotion and I didn't want to freak her out by grabbing her and hugging her, so I just blinked back tears and touched her arm and told her how glad I was and what I'd been thinking. She's very shy and quiet, but opened up to me and thanked me for my concern, and when we looked into one another's eyes, I felt a connection there that just touched my heart so deeply.
I'm so happy about her babies, and even though outwardly it may look like my giving kindness to her, that moment of connection and shared emotion gave me something as well. Wow.
