Physical beauty is a vain thing and is only important to man - not to God.
Just because a couple is blessed with a cute baby doesn't mean they won't be "tested" by God in some other aspect of their life. You can pay for the sins you commit in many different ways: lose your freedom, your possessions, your family, your good health... whatever. God is not always gonna send you an "ugly" baby because you did wrong by having sex before marriage.
And who knows? The baby could still grow up to be a crackhead, a drunk, or a bum, a loser, or whatever. God doesn't care about looks. He leaves that up to us and Mother Nature.
Furthermore, we all sin. But God is cool enough to give us opportunities - everyday that we open our eyes - to repent our sins. The one's that take advantage of these opportunities from time to time will receive good blessings - like a beautiful baby for instance - although they had sex before marriage. Just because you wait won't guarantee a beautiful baby or even a healthy baby. You have to pray about stuff like that. God knows you're gonna be tempted everyday of your life to do wrong and that you will commit a sin or two - here and there... But He knows your heart and will still bless you sometimes because He knows you're trying to live right.
But again, beauty itself is not important to God. It's how you try to please God that will ultimately determine what kind of blessings you get. So, even a sin like "sex before marriage" may sometimes be forgiven.

I think you have answered your own question.
If sex prior to marriage produces beautiful children (which is often the intention with the old sex thing) then it is a good thing.
Sin is a word used by those looking to control masses of people by imposing "guidelines" either through the bible or other religious teachings...
At some point (the sooner the better) people will wise up and realise there is no god, these books are propaganda rubbish, that churches etc are wrong and should be replaced with homeless flats and that the brainwashing must stop.
Life is life live it as well as you can. Sorry if this offends - only opinions.

Well really, why wouldn't He? We all do many things every day that are a sin, but God in his grace and mercy still blesses us. That's the real joy of knowing God, knowing How much He gives us that we don't deserve. He has blessed you with 3 lovely children, they are there for you to enjoy.

Because if God made it a requirement that in order to become a parent, a person must have never committed a sin, then no children would ever be born??
Or maybe God can still use sinners for his purpose?

What is sin? What size is it ,what colour,has anyone seen it ?
Invention by the religion created by men to control you by FEAR.
now remember this FEAR is that:
False , Evidence , Appearing, Real it is an illusion.
Sin is a mistake which when you correct no longer is of any importance.You right such a great miracle as life as a result of two people celebrating life cannot and is not a sin, it is a great joy and Gods gift for humanity. Regards Stukas

no matter what you say most christian faiths say that to have sex outside marriage is a sin. I'm not judging just stating a fact.
they would also say that God gave you free will. If you decide to have sex there is a distinct possibliity that someone is going to get pregnant (traditionally the woman).
just because you are happy with the results does not mean it is not a sin.

I don't think its a sin, Its a way to get really close to the person that you will spend the rest of your life with. which will give the marriage more chance of working and lasting.
As to why children are born outside of marriage well that to do with sex before marriage and is nothing to do with God, more to do with Mother nature

How can it be a sin if it is between two normal, sexually mature and willing individuals?!
Religion and faith were designed by groups which controlled society, and they have tried to keep society in control. These 'control' groups create rules which the members have to follow, to be part of the group and to prosper within the group.
Is n't it healthier to avoid sexual encounters before marraige...frankly speaking...it is!!
It may also avoid sexual 'comparison' ("Laura used to do this!", "Hannah loved it when I bit her!" - or worse!), and probably is the reason why a lot of marraiges fail.
In a country like India, where religion and culture promote chaste behaviour, the results show in themselves...India has the lowest divorce rate in the world.
And those who do have divorces are the 'experienced' ones!!

Right and wrong has nothing to do with sin...
The church considered healing the sick sinful witchcraft and burned people alive...
The creation of the idea of sin was mainly to control people... most ethical systems have no murder or rape...
However you need to look at the justice and fairness inother ules chucked in...
Most are abusive say to gay people... ie being gay is a sin... why What do gay people do to bully or mistreat others...
its like hitler saying being a jew was a sin punishable by death...
Likewise being a pole dancer is a sin... why girl gets fit, makes lots of money, makes guys happy and not a problem with debt.
Likewise people living togehter... My brother in laws brother and girlfriend have been together 16 years... Far more then most marraiges and they are happy and have no reason to want to split up even though they couls...
Many marraiges are unhappy, abusive, violent, devoid of love.
Look at history... Marriagwe used to be a business transaction... Ie you give me 10 acres of land and a treaty of non aggression you can marry my daught... who carwes if she loves someone else and you are a total paycho jerk.
Get it?
