As some may know, I am a friend to Miss Norma, the woman who is in the history books as "Roe" in the seminal US Supreme Court case, Roe v. Wade. Praise God, she is now a leading voice in the pro-life movement!
I wanted to share with you something she told me today, about her late father and his loving and generous nature.
When Norma became pregnant with the child that caused her to be chosen as the plainitff in that case (and no, the child was never aborted, but given up for adoption and reunited with her mother in later years), her father told her not to worry and said, "Honey, we have another cup of water and bone for the soup . . ." if she were to keep the baby.
What a great saying! And what a great father! Today, I am praying for the soul of Norma McCorvey's father.
