We are all so blessed!

I just finished up reading the most amazing blog I have ever seen in my life!

It is written by a mother and father who recently gave their newborn daughter to Jesus.

The blog is beautiful and you should all read it, if nothing else to be reminded how fortunate we all are. The address is http://conorbootheandgirls.blogspot.com/

You know, no matter how bad things get (we think they get) or how tight money is, what matters? Right now all 3 of my children are sleeping in their beds and I know I took them for granted today. Not easy to admit, but true. I of all people, I have been in the room when Jesus was there to take an angel. I have felt that pain ( not as a parent but an aunt, I have always said if it hurts this bad and your the aunt, I can't imagine being the mother) of losing a child. It was the most beautiful and undescribable moment to be there in that room. And then when the peace lifts and realtity kicks the door down, oh the pain! And I take for granted that my children are here.
I appreciate this mothers raw honesty and the gift she has given me of perspective. I am sure I will need it again one day but right now I am going to kiss my babies!
