Strength

I have been following the Declan's Journey blog for a while now (http://declansjourney.com/) and reading the post from today (6/10) reminds me that our 3 year old's temper tantrum at 5am this morning is NOTHING compared to what this family struggles with every day. The resilience and optimism that Declan's mom has strengthens my patience and reminds me to count my blessings for our two healthy, happy boys every single day. If you have a minute to read a couple of her posts on the blog, please do, and say a prayer for Mr. Declan. I don't know the family personally, but they are local (Loudoun County) and have four boys, the youngest two are twins, one of which is going through a battle to save his life from a rare form of brain cancer -- at 9 months old. Unbelievable.
