Trig Palin

It's just been announced that McCain's VP choice is Sarah Palin, governor of Alaska. That is newsworthy. But more interesting to me is the story of her son who was born this last April. The Palin family learned last year that her fifth child would likely be born with Down syndrome. They rejected the option of abortion out of hand and now have a healthy, happy baby boy named Trig. An amazing story. Read Al Mohler's piece on their story here.

My favorite quote came from the husband when he found out the news that his son would probably have Down syndome. He said, "We shouldn't be asking, 'Why us?' We should be saying, 'Well, why not us?'"

Hallelujah.
