(WFLA)— An adorable photo of a smiling preemie baby is getting hundreds of thousands of likes on Facebook.
We’re not surprised. You can’t help but smile when you look at the photo.
Mother Lauren Vinje posted the photo of her daughter on the “Love What Matters” Facebook page. The picture was taken when her daughter was just five days old and only weighed 3 lbs and 4 oz.
“She was happy to be alive,” wrote Vinje in the post. “This picture was one I looked at often to get me through the ups and downs of our NICU days. Life is so precious.”
Vinje’s photo inspired other people to post photos of their preemies and themselves. It is very heartwarming to read through the comments and look at the photos.
“I was a preemie born at 24 weeks, 1 lb 7 oz back in 1989. No complications that I experience now although I had some growing issues when I was younger. I have to say, it’s what’s inspiring me to be a Nurse. I graduate with my RN in December and one day hope to work in the NICU,” said Heather Pascall in the comments section.
Pascall also posted a photo of herself as a grownup–no doubt, inspiring the parents of preemies.
As of Thursday afternoon, 295,000 people had liked Lauren Vinje’s photo and it has gotten more than 8,600 comments.
Amazing. And think back to the last debate...
“Hillary would have had no problem killing this beautiful creation before she ever had a chance to smile”
What you’re saying sounds like hyperbole or exaggeration, but that is exactly what she stands for strongly!
And rationalize it by proclaiming proudly "it's a choice!". I cringe when I hear libs say that.
THAT is the Face of GOD!!!!!!
Yes indeed! That’s when I would have loved Trump to have said, “I’m sorry but I cannot fathom anyone supporting babies, in the birth canal on their way to being born, being stabbed in the top of their heads with scissors and then vacuuming their brains out so that they are dead upon delivery. It is the most barbaric act, but Hillary has no heart and should NEVER be considered as our President.”
Scarlett Johansson would also kill the child.

Pure joy in that smile.
Yes....that’s why it’s the FACE of GOD!!!
Precious cargo. God is smiling.
Obama is right. There are around 250 people struck by lightning each year. And this year, the Democrats will probably cheat and conduct voter fraud at around 250 precint locations throughout the battle ground states. That is a lot of locations! Thanks for noticing that, Hussein Obama. You are dead on. There will be lots of locations where the Dems are stealing votes.
That face is of a little one who has just come from The Presence of GOD ... and demons want such little ones slaughtered to insult God’s Grace. THAT is what Hilalry Rodham supports, defends and champions. Make no mistake, America, this is evil rising in our midst.
This darling baby IS the FACE of GOD smiling on his parents AND the drs. and nurses that delivered her!! IT'S GID'S SIGN to US!!!! DON'T KILL HIS GIFTS!!
Dispensing Divine Mercy.
AMEN!!!! EVERYONE involved will have DIVE MERCY!!! GOD BLESS THEM ALL!!
Hello, precious gift from God!
DIVE MERCY?
What is that?

She meant to write, DIVINE MERCY.
