prayers and thankfulness

i read this post today, and it totally sums up my feelings about what's happening in haiti. it hurts my heart to think of the families who are grieving or searching. i'm also immensely grateful to be a part of this church and its ongoing efforts to help. excuse me for a minute, i feel the need to go smother my children with kisses and look them in the eyes and say "love you," and hope they know just how much i mean it.
