Today we send up thanks for being allowed to continue on with the journey of raising this child...and we quietly reflect on this day, three years ago, and celebrate second chances that we are so grateful for.
We make a fuss of our youngest son on this day ever since his accident. This year, he said that it was no big deal to him. The innocence of youth...We simply explained that it is special to us because April 24th could have meant something very grim to us had things gone differently that day. Instead, it means that we get to go forward with our lives as a family of five...with healthy children. I simply pray that this fortune continues and that my children live long, happy lives. Isn't that the prayer of every parent?
