‘Bring My Quints Back,’ Poor Dad Repeats Same Prayer Daily until He Gets Letter ‘from God’ — Story of the Day
Christopher and Alice had a beautiful family, but after Alice’s death, their family was torn apart. However, through Christopher’s act of faith, he was able to bring it back together.
Christopher and Alice were high-school sweethearts who got married right after graduating. They met as teenagers, and the chemistry was undeniable.
As their relationship progressed over the years, many of their peers envied them because they had found what takes many a lifetime to find. When Alice’s friends would ask her how she found “Mr. Right” so early, she would simply reply with a slightly jocose tone:
“Honestly, I just prayed. I’ve always wanted marriage from a young age. So I just started praying early. If you are looking for the same, then you better get started asap.”

The couple had always wanted a large family, hoping for maybe three children. However, they were never ready for what fate had waiting for them.
Alice gave birth to quintuplets, and Christopher was utterly baffled because Alice had once mentioned having a dream about having quintuplets.

Alice’s parents didn’t care much for Christopher or the setup of their household. They despised the idea of Christopher watching the kids while Alice worked and saw it as a sign of weakness on Christopher’s part.
