Perspective

This Friday evening, I will be attending our town's Relay for Life.  This will be the third year I have gone.  This year will be the first time I am walking in memory of someone.  When I do my laps, I will be saying a prayer for Beth and Ryan Chupp.  You, see, their baby, Keegan, passed away at the age of 2 after a life-long battle with brain cancer.

It seems like once I learned of Keegan's story, I was more aware of childhood cancers.  All of the sudden I was hearing more and more about kids who had cancer.  It makes my heart ache for their parents.  And it has changed my perspective on life.  Now, more than ever, I think twice before I complain about a night where I didn't get much sleep because of the boys. I try and have more patience.  I hug them, kiss them, squeeze them, sniff the top of their heads, watch them sleep a little longer every chance I get...because I know that there are parents out there who would give the world to have one more day with their kids who were taken too soon.  I try now, more than ever, not to take any minute for granted. 

So this Friday I will pray a little harder as I do my laps...pray for comfort and peace for Beth and Ryan...and for all the families that are having to go through this.  Pray that someday someone will find a cure...and these children won't have to leave this Earth so soon....

Will You Join Me on Mini-Group?

Hi guys!

So, I am completely bummed with the new Facebook changes and having to pay to promote.  On average, I am only reaching about 10% of you.

I would love if you would join me over on Minigroup.  Its format is similar to facebook in that we post on the page and share photos, files, video, etc...but it is completely private!

I would just need your email address so I can invite you.  You will not have to pay a fee.  I currently pay $3/year to own my groups.  Anyone I invite can join my group for free.

I would love if you would join me! Please email me your email address and I will send you an invite!

I will still share things I find on facebook (sales, deals, info, etc) but I will do it on the minigroup page if I can get a lot of interest. 

Thanks guys!
