A Different Kind of Mother's Day

Last Friday I read Cindy's blog and my heart just broke for her. I hadn't seen her since October and all I wanted to do was give her a hug. So I called her and told her I was heading to Dallas on Monday even just to see her for an hour.

This pictures is of the kids and I with our Angels for Atticus bracelets. It was a really really hard week for Atticus. I was grateful to spend some time with Cindy before their many ER visits. For those of you who read her blog and have felt of her incredible strength just through her words I can promise you that she and Eric are all that they seem and more. Amazing and incredible don't begin to describe this family and what examples they are all of pure courage in the face of adversity. Atticus is a special boy called on a special mission and his parents are equally special. I am blessed just to know this family and learn from their examples.


I love and adore my Mom but on this Mother's Day I can't stop thinking of Cindy and how she is one of the best and strongest moms I know. Please keep Atticus and the Hansens in your prayers.

It's so hard to hear about a child suffering and I can't even imagine how a mother can bear it. You are a good friend and I've thought a lot about this little family and how life is so fragile.
