Gratitude - Day 18

Today I am grateful for healthy kids. I am so blessed that we have not had to deal with anything other than minor health issues with our kids. They've had colds, ear infections, (ear tubes), bladder infections, kidney infections, a broken wrist, strep throat, chicken pox and probably a few more things, but those are nothing compared to what some people face. There is a blog that I read daily about a little girl named Kate. She was a perfectly healthy 4 or 5 year old when her mother noticed her hand shaking one day. When they had it checked out they found that she had a cancerous brain tumor. Every day I read about her and her battle to win against this disease. It's heart wrenching to imagine going through that and it truly makes me grateful to have healthy kids.
