David wrote at the time that ‘While the joy in this photo was real, it was an especially meaningful moment to my wife and I cause we suffered another miscarriage last Christmas (that makes 4 for us now). So we’re thankful that we’re now out of the stage where miscarriage is likely…and I know this story’s a bit of a downer, but I wanted to share it cause I know there are families out there who have experienced similar struggles and pain.’
