Check this out! It is very touching. Make sure you have a box of tissue handy. I found it on someone's blog and thought I'd share it. McKay and this little boy in the video have very different problems, but the things they went through we could totally relate to.

Very sad. I had a sister who died of Trisomy 18. I was 14 years old. My mom was in her ninth month of pregnancy, when the baby died, so I found the video very touching.

Well today I was feeling bad for myself having to lay around all the time. Watching this made me think how grateful that I am to lay around as long as it helps my baby get stronger and bigger. What an amazing video truly makes you think and be grateful for the blessings we have in our life. That family is a great example. Just like you guys are to us! Thanks for everything! We love you guys!

You haven't blogged for a long time. I'm hoping everything's okay for you all. I keep checking in on you and nothing has changed for a few weeks... Maybe you just have a life & I don't, therefore you have no time to blog :)

hey tauna, my name is kristina (bills) andersen. i was in bro. roes seminary class in bear lake.. i bet you get that alot. anyways i hope you don't mind me writing. i have to tell you in seminary bro roe told a story about when you were very sick and he was taking care of the 2 boys. i guess matthew dumped a thing of laundry soap all over the floor and down the stairs. bro roe said it was one of those moments where i took pictures instead of yelling at him. i now have 2 little boys myself and i have to tell you i know that feeling. sometimes we laugh to keep from crying. we are truely blessed to be trusted with our heavenly fathers children and you and john are such a good example of that. thanks for you example you never know who is watching. thank you for you time.
