What makes me hopeful and thankful that the world is and will be a better place for my son is knowing that there are so many families and good people in this world, like you and I, who each day, despite their fear, discouragement, and worries, make the best of their days, each and every day. The parents who rush home from work to be at the dinner table with their children, the children who are looking forward to their parents everyday, the good people who makes our world simply WORK. I am thankful for all of them, and when the world seems to crumble down around me, I think of them and give thanks, and know that they are here to stay.
