a few minutes of sweetness...


A few months ago I stumbled upon a blog called c jane enjoy it. She is telling the story of her sister and brother-in-law's recovery from a devastating plane crash.


Her brother-in-law had burns to about 35% of his body and her sister nearly 85% of her body. They have four or five kids and her sisters are helping to take care of them while the couple recovers.
They have the most amazing love story and I can't wait to see the rest of their happily ever after...


This past weekend there was a benefit concert to raise money for their medical expenses. The couple's two oldest girls sang.


I just saw the video of the song. Don't even try to watch without the kleenex nearby.


I was struck by how the girls hung onto eachother's hands so tightly. Those poor little souls are going through much more than they need to at their young ages of 5 and 7.


It's such a beautiful video and an inspiring story...




enjoy and hug the ones you love extra tight tonight.
