Touched….

Awhile ago I posted a new feature It’s better to give, accept today it isn’t about me giving. Today it’s about receiving. Just recently I’ve been following along with Inspired Ideas. First of all, let me tell you the magazine is amazing and you shouldn’t waste another minute of your time without checking out every single archive.

Beyond that lies the Inspired Ideas creator, a stranger, a woman who has gripped my heart with her archives and just  recently with her love story . I can’t explain in words what it feels like to be able to hold my children every day, steal a kiss whenever I want or look into their eyes with a simple glance. I can’t explain or even grasp to understand the pain in which some people go through to have children, become adoptive parents or those of you who are foster parents. I will tell you though, with the utmost gratitude and heart that I admire you. I appreciate you for making sacrifices, giving a piece of your heart to them, because they need love. I’ve received a special gifts from this woman, new eyes to see my own children with. A softened heart for the small things in life. I’ve received new found compassion for all that you do. Today, I’m touched and grateful, I don’t know if I could do what you do.
