CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Today is my son’s 7th Birthday. He spent last weekend along with Monday and Tuesday sick. He doesn’t get sick very often, and when he does, he goes down HARD. With him being sick I was able to spend a lot of extra time with him this weekend and Monday when he stayed home from school. With his mom and I being divorced, extra time with him is few and far in between. 

My son mentioned this, that although he didn’t feel well, he mentioned several times that the extra time that we spent together was worth it. This almost 7 year old found the silver lining of his illness. I charge everyone to always remember to see the world through the innocent eyes of a child. Although he was sick, I was able to spend an extra day with my boy. Which was made all the more special being so close to his birthday! 

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
