And I must look at it a million times a day…..OK, maybe not that many, but I look at it a lot.<\/p>\n
This was given to me about a week ago by a woman that Jon went to school with. They managed to meet up at Children’s Hospital last week and she gave him a present. She had read a couple of posts of mine…one that talked about “Keeping Calm” and another that talked about “Carrying On” and then she thought of this wall hanging and had to get it for me.<\/p>\n
I LOVE it. <\/p>\n
It speaks so much more to me than just a gift or just a great phrase. It encourages me immensely. Shannon<\/a> and her sons and their whole family have their own journey that they are walking and it’s not an easy one and in the middle of her own battle she reached out to love and encourage us. I look at this sitting on my wall and at times when I feel alone – it speaks to me that there are so many out there loving, praying, and standing with us cheering us on. <\/p>\n Thank you, Shannon. Thank you for reaching out and encouraging me. Thanks for your support and your love. Thank you! <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I’ve got this hanging on my wall right now.
