30-year-old Mark Brecknell and Sophie Mcmahon, 29, hoped their daughter Prym'rose would be their much-needed 'miracle' after their homes were targeted in two separate arson attacks.<\/p>\n
Large flames could be seen engulfing the vehicles outside their respective Kings Norton homes in Heathside Drive and two days later in Netheravon Close, Birmingham Live reports.<\/p>\n
The family, who have three children, said they had to move house with "practically nothing" to start over.<\/p>\n
Police have launched an investigation, but no arrests have yet been made.<\/p>\n

Sophie was reportedly rushed to hospital with stress for an emergency C section as the persistent attackers continued to harass the couple as they moved into their new home.<\/p>\n
Mr Brecknell said: "We were trying to decorate the new house we had moved to, then my partner fell ill due to stress etc.<\/p>\n
"She was rushed into hospital and my daughter was born via emergency caesarean, we were told on arrival she was really poorly and not going to make it."<\/p>\n
Tragically their little died in their arms after doctors informed them her kidneys were not functioning.<\/p>\n
"It's literally been an emotional rollercoaster, never did we imagine we'd be saying this but here we are," he said.<\/p>\n
"Time is precious. Use it wisely and cherish every moment in life because life can change literally overnight and take it from you."<\/p>\n
