99 Balloons

I absolutely LOVE Oprah Winfrey. This was on her show last week. A viewer sent in a letter to Oprah to honor this family who made a video dedicated to their son Eliot. It is on of the most humbling, loving, tear-jerking things I have ever witnessed in my life.



Seize the day and appreciate all you have. I couldn't be more blessed and thankful for the wonderful family and friends in my life. This video is something I definitely wanted to share, if you have seen it, enjoy it again. If not, grab a tissue!!

Thanks for making me cry...and remember when my baby was in the NICU after he was born, not that I could forget but I think we take for granted the small miracles our Heavenly Father has blessed us with. I'm so greatful my son is healthy and growing everyday.
