Fifteen years ago, at just 18 and newly married, Emily believed she had found forever with David. They dreamed about their future children and built a life in a small home his mother lent them. But when David lost his job, his confidence crumbled into bitterness. As Emily worked extra shifts, she found herself pregnant\u2014then learned it was twins.
