Help us nominate a Tampa Bay child for the 50 Beautiful Children Campaign with Beauty Revived.

In January we searched out empty corners of our house, looking for daylight to seep through and brighten our lives.

“All birth is beautiful, each story in it’s own way despite the process or outcome. With my first birth, the beauty was in the struggle. A road that led from infertility to a long, hard labor and complications. I felt proud to have made it through. With this birth, the beauty was in the simplicity. The pregnancy was a welcomed surprise, the labor and delivery short and uncomplicated. Both births were so beautiful, for completely different reasons. I feel like the birth of my son restored some faith I lost in my body with the birth of my daughter and the birth of my daughter showed me strength I would have never known I had.”
