Perspective...


I haven't felt like posting anything crafty lately. Who cares about crafts when you are following this story. It's amazing how life can change in a instant. Nothing has happened to me except a complete change in perspective. I found this blog the day after it happened and have been reading everyday, feeling scared, amazed and in awe of this family. What a tragic mistake, yet a wonderful gift. Was this an accident, or a blessing? I think both. Coming so close to losing their baby, they showed such grace and faith in a higher healing power. Their belief in a loving Heavenly Father who hears and answers prayers is now undeniable. I think their lives will be forever changed from this event. They will hold their kids tighter, give thanks for their blessings, remember the love and support they received and know that God is a God of miracles. He will give life and take it away as He sees fit and in His time. He is in charge and knows what's best for us. We will leave this earth when it's our time, not a minute sooner. That little boy must have more to do here. This family and little boy will forever be able to testify of God's grace and miracles.

The beauty of it is that all of us who got to follow along can vicariously change our perspective on life too. Definitely a blessing.


I'm headed off for a warm sunny getaway for the next week. I'm anxious to leave my babies but I'm sure it will be great once I'm gone (that's what everyone keeps telling me), and I know they are in good hands.
