Perspective

Lately I have found it all to easy to lose my perspective. Worries about money, jobs, stress with school and just life in general tend to cloud my outlook. I was looking through some old pictures and it really hit me how very lucky I am. It's amazing how you don't think you would ever forget, and to a certain extent I don't. But sometimes I live my life as if I am just trying to get by, instead of realizing that so many would do anything to have what I have. I am married to my best friend, who I love more every day, and I have two of the greatest kids ever. God has blessed us in so many ways, one of the most visible being Noah. Consider what a difference a year has made.

At this point Noah was not able to eat, breathe without the ventilator, his bowels were not working, and his heart had just been fixed.

He has suffered no complications from any of his health issues, he does not even have to be on blood pressure meds (as most with his condition do.)

In times when many are worried about legitimate things (money for example) I hope that we can keep in mind the many things that we have and focus on these instead of what we are lacking.
