Thank You!

The support and encouragement we have had from family, friends, acquaintances, and people we don't even know has been unbelievable! We are so lucky to have each of y'all in our lives. People keep asking us how we can be so calm and collected already. You know. It is what it is. We can't change the hand we've been dealt, we just have to embrace it and move forward.

I went to a funeral this week. A former student at my school passed away after battling serious health issues. Her mother spoke at the eulogy and said something that put things in perspective for me. She said that if you look at a child who has a disability, they are almost always the happiest child you have ever met! They don't care if they have something "wrong" with them, they live life to the fullest. So you shouldn't feel sorry for them either! Just continue to love them and cherish them as you would any other child. That's what will make them feel wanted and loved.

Jordan and I are blessed to have such good people in our lives. Brody doesn't know most of you yet but I think he's blessed to have you in HIS life too.

THANK YOU!
