I feel lucky just about every day for the family and the life I have. Ty and I went through some serious, eh "stuff" shall we say to have our family. And the two girls GOD has entrusted to us are blessings most days.
Tonight, we were invited to dinner by some friends and some of their friends came too. while we're in the 'get to know you' phase of dinner, we uncovered one of our new friends daughter went through Chemo and was recently given a bill of health from an unknown prob that's so rare they couldn't even get an official cancer diagnosis. Their daughter was 5 when she started experiencing problems. 5? Right when you think you're sending your child off to Kindergarten instead this mom is putting her child through testing and life saving medication. It's just something that's hard to imagine
So once again my life is in proper perspective. I like to think I have a pretty good handle on how GOOD we have it- but these little reminders are always good to put any of today's stress in it's rightful, backseat.
Go hug your child and tell them you love them!
