What My Child Has Taught Me

I saw this and I really like it. I wanted to share with everyone.

What My Child Has Taught Me
- I've learned that you can keep going long after you think you can't.
- I've learned that learning to forgive takes a lot of practice.
- I've learned that friends can become strangers, and strangers can become friends.
- I've learned that ignorance isn't an excuse for lack of compassion.
- I've learned that some people will never, ever - "get it".
- I've learned that no matter how badly your heart is broken the world doesn't stop for your grief.
- I've learned that your life can be changed in a matter of minutes.
- I've learned that the people you care most about in life are taken from you too soon.
- I've learned that you should always leave loved ones with loving words.It may be the last time you see them.
- I've learned that love isn't measured by the amount of time you have with someone.
- I've learned that some sorrow is so deep that it has no words. But so is love.
- I've learned that some positives can come out of a tragedy... and that friends and strangers alike can give more comfort and strength than they will ever know.
- I've learned that the words 'Thank You' sometimes are nowhere near enough to express gratitude, when someone has helped you survive a day that you didn't have the strength to get through on your own. Or when someone takes the time to acknowledge what has happened and cares enough to listen to you.
- I've learned how important and powerful hugs are.
- I've learned how much i love those around me.
- I've learned what it means to become a family, and that i have more love for my children than I ever thought possible.

We love you Clayton Andrew!!!
