He covers his face with his hand and begins to smile through tears. Soon he is sobbing.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Look at this little heart,&#8221; says the father.<\/p>\n<p>When the father says again that there are two babies, his young son asks, &#8220;Twins?&#8221; then begins to laugh after\u00a0his father&#8217;s confirmation. It is obvious he is thrilled at the news, and millions of people have loved watching his precious elation.<\/p>\n<p>The humanity of his little brothers, seen on a sonogram, was instantly obvious to this young boy. Like him, many others have witnessed the wonder of the humanity of preborn children in the womb, thanks to ultrasound technology. Unfortunately, organizations like\u00a0Planned Parenthood oppose laws that require women\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.www.liveactionnews.org\/planned-parenthood-women-not-see-ultrasound\/\">to simply be given the choice<\/a>\u00a0of viewing their ultrasounds &#8212; which are\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.www.liveactionnews.org\/president-of-now-equates-ultrasounds-to-rape-outright-lies-to-gain-support\/\">already routinely done<\/a>\u00a0to date the gestational age and to rule out ectopic pregnancy prior to abortion &#8212;\u00a0before deciding on abortion.\u00a0\u00a0Ultrasound saves lives &#8212; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.www.liveactionnews.org\/ultrasound-images-save-lives-change-hearts\/\">up to 78%<\/a> of women considering abortion <a href=\"http:\/\/www.www.liveactionnews.org\/how-ultrasounds-are-shaping-womens-views-on-abortion\/\">change their minds<\/a> after viewing sonograms of their children.<\/p>\n<p>Life in the womb is a celebratory event, and each child should be welcomed as joyfully as this young boy has done for his new brothers.
