Love Grows

By Sarah Lowry

After having a hard conversation with an expecting mother who received a prenatal diagnosis of Down syndrome, termination was determined over life. Sarah, Founder of Love That Surpasses and Author of Love Grows, poured out her heart through the words in this book to shed light on this pivotal moment in which she hoped for a different outcome.A poem written through the perspective of her unborn, almond, blue-eyed little boy-who also received a prenatal diagnosis of Down Syndrome-is shared in hopes of encouraging other expecting parents who are facing similar fears. This book not only speaks to families who are impacted by the apprehensions associated with this diagnosis; but also those questioning "Will I love this baby as much as I love my first child?"Sarah invites you into her own journey of overcoming fear through this short poem and impressionist style illustrations, inspired by her son and God's unconditional love. Knowing that God cherishes every mosaic piece of us, each stroke is meant to represent the complexity of us as His own work of art and by His grace, we are all loved, valued and worthy--no exceptions.Learn More about Love That Surpasses: Love that Surpasses is a 501(c)3 Nonprofit that provides support through our Bags of Hope to mothers that receive a prenatal diagnosis of Down Syndrome.
