A friend sent this to me this morning, and I thought it so appropriate, especially since Moriah's middle name is Pearl:
"A tiny bit of sand lodges in the flesh of an oyster and becomes an irritating intrusion. Unable to expel it, the oyster covers the particle with layer after layer of a milky secretion until the irritation has become smooth, round and acceptable...Unlike other gems, pearls are drawn from something that's alive. Pearls are produced by a life that has overcome affliction, that has overcome suffering. Little wonder they are so valuable!" Pearls of Great Price by Joni Eareckson Tada
