After 3 Boys, We Gave Up Our Dream of a Daughter—Then My Husband Called Me to the Hospital and Said, “There’s a Baby Here”

“But she can use the blue one.”

Our emergency placement was approved pending the initial court review and the continuing search for Maya’s father.

I sat on the edge of our bed.

“So we can bring her home?”

“If the hospital medically clears her tomorrow.”

I looked toward Marcus.
