World's Most Amazing Father!

I just finished reading and watching the most amazing story ever....but I wasn't told to have a tissue ready. So I'm telling you, when you watch the video, have a tissue handy. This made me look at myself as a parent wondering how good of a job am I doing for my child? I hope I'm doing well, but I do know that I need work. Enjoy this, I did!

WHAT AN EXAMPLE! I love this story! Thanks for reminding me that anything can be done. I know any of us would do whatever it takes for our kids to be happy, no matter if they ARE bigger than us! I love how this dad never gave up on his son. I just hope if ever faced with a challenge like that I could do the same for my own child. If I could just carry Brenner through this battle with diabetes, I would! How would it be to prove doctors and people wrong?!? Court, thanks for sharing this with me! We can't wait to see you! Your "favorite" aunt, Crystal! -XOXOXO

Tissues MY FANNY - I'm thinkin' oversized beach towel. I cried through the whole thing. I can see Grandpa and Grandma doing this for any of us - and they do! What a great story! Thanks.

Love, Jen (your real favorite aunt)

Pffft!! Who does Crys think she is?

Maybe it's just me, but I can't read your whole entry because your bubble share picture thing is always covering up the text. Anyone else find this. So I don't know what this amazing story is all about.
