hands and pray for our family and friends, and then i sit him up and lay his head on my shoulder for a hug. when i laid him back down, his mouth opened and i saw a little smile. it literally started pouring out of my eyes. i haven't seen my boy smile in 5 months.
i know this is kind of a sappy story, but just let this be a reminder to never give up on the ones you love. even if it's too hard to handle, that's when you have to dig the deepest and try the hardest to believe in them, because giving up is not an option.
