Today I feel very blessed. I have such a wonderful, loving family and we had an amazing day. We have sang songs, played with the train, watched the Charlie Brown Christmas, and had a yummy dinner. All of these wonderful things have me coming back to this statement that I have heard several times,, “I can not even imagine what you are going through.” Yes, it is true, it is hard to believe that we are having to go through this, and I would not wish this on any family, but tonight I think this very same statement about all of those families in Connecticut. I feel very fortunate that tonight, I have my sweet little boy upstairs in my bed, and tomorrow, I get to see his beaming face when he looks at the tree. For those in CT, they will not have that privilege. Yes, it is going to be a long 3 to 3 1/2 years, but we WILL beat this. We will still be able to enjoy life with this amazingly strong boy.
Tonight, I pray that all of those going through difficult times find the strength to look towards God for help. He has a plan, and we must follow along the way. Merry Christmas to all!!! Hug your loved ones extra long, as you never know how long you will get to spend with them.

Nee,
Your words are inspiring. Wish we could be together with a nice big Mitch Miller sing-along. Merry Christmas! Love you, Lan
Happy holidays to the Evans family! Thanks for sharing this link with me. I have been thinking about your family so very much. What a strong and courageous boy you have – who must take after his wonderful family. Best wishes for a healthy and happy 2013.
