OK - So I am sitting here in my hotel room in Chicago. Don't really have much to say right now except I REALLY miss my boys!!!!! I can't wait to get back home tomorrow night. It has helped knowing that when I call, Carson gets on the phone and knows who I am and tells me he loves me.
I have done well up until tonight when a man stopped me and my boss on the street and asked if we could "help us out." We politely said we didn't have any cash and kept walking. As I passed the gentleman, I realized he was pushing a stroller with a big blanket. ( Did I mention it is down in the 40's and extremely windy and cold?) At first the thought crossed my mind that is was fake because all you could see was a blanket. However, when I got a closer look I discovered it was a little boy about Carson's age sleeping. It has torn at me for the last 30 minutes thinking about how cold that little boy must have been. That is why I can't wait to see my boys....especially Carson.
I know as I lay in bed tonight, I will be saying my prayers thanking GOD for what he has given me in my life. Never forget to THANK GOD for the many blessings that you have in your life and NEVER EVER take anything for granted.

OMG, you're making me cry! I was thinking the same thing today when we were at the hospital getting Madie's cast cut off, and there were lots of kids there that were worse off than we were. There was one little baby, younger than Madie, who had a deformed foot and had had several casts and surgeries. I was just thanking God for my little angel, and for all of the blessings He's given us. I never knew I could love someone so much. Hurry home!!!
