Christopher had a steady stream of visitors stop by to see him yesterday, all of his friends who are home from college, came by to cheer him up. I watched as these boys, so big and strong and almost men, came in and treated him with such gentle love and care. Their words and actions were so compassionate, that I had tears in my eyes knowing that they would be such good husbands and daddies someday. I am grateful to all mothers who are raising the next generation of men to be strong and smart, yet gentle and caring as well. It is not enough to just feel it, you need to show it too. His friends did so much to heal him yesterday.
And you helped to heal me. Your words, your prayers...filled with love and compassion...lifted me up. You will never know how much your friendships mean to me. Thank you from the bottom of my heart...we are both doing much better today :)
