Henry taught me many things, through his life and his death. In order to share some of these things, I decided to make a "top ten" list of the things he taught me. Some things I can't even articulate...he just changed me. But this is the list I could put into words. Some days, when I need to write but I don't know what to say, I'll return to this list and expand on these items. But for this morning, here's my list!
10. Anything worth having is worth working for.
9. Enjoy the little things.
8. Every child I interact with is someone's "Henry."
7. To be a mother is to watch your heart walk around outside your body.
6. There truly are angels on earth.
5. Everyone is fighting some sort of battle we know nothing about.
4. Time is a gift.
3. Death is not the end of a relationship.
2. You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only choice you have.
1. Motherhood is the best job I could ever hope for.
