Tonight, as we got ready to go get our annual picture with santa, I caught my littlest sister Catherine in a room all by herself twirling. She was in her new beautiful christmas dress, and she felt beautiful.
When she saw me watching, she stopped twirling, embarrassed. But I got my camera and eventually convinced her to twirl for some pictures. As a watched her, I realized just how lucky she is. How lucky I am.
To have someone to rejoice in the small things with you. Someone to take pictures of twirling. Someone to buy you a new Christmas dress. That is something that more than 147 million children in this world do not have.
We have been blessed with parents that have shown us Jesus' love. So many have not.
