A couple days ago I shared with everyone the story of Evan. http://www.facebook.com/healingevan His story touched many people, most of whom
had never met him or his family. Today, he
made his journey to Heaven. My hands are
shaking as I type this. I never knew
this little boy, but my heart is breaking.
I cry for his parents. I cry for
his brother and sisters. I cry for
myself.
This family has shared their grief with a world full of
people. And, the people have
responded. In less than a week, this
little boy had more than 2.893 people praying for him on Facebook. There was more than $7,000 raised to help
with family with their expenses. You can donate here. I have
always believed in people. I always try
to see the best in people. But, even I
am astounded that so many people are willing to care about a little boy and his
family. Evan has left quite a legacy
behind.
I can’t imagine what this family is going through. I can’t even begin to understand what it feels
like to lose a child. So, I will hug my
children a little tighter today, worry less about the things that need done,
and make sure they know just how much I love them. After all, life is short. And, I thank God every day that I get spend
it them. Thank you little Evan for
reminding me what is important.
