I love what she says and the way she looks at the scripture in 1 Corinthians that we have heard so often in our lives. It's a fresh look, a look that causes parents to think differently about it and a look that causes us to look inside ourselves as parents. She is speaking from the heart, and her message is simple, yet powerful.

I think sometimes the hardest thing for my family is the fact that Calvin and Isaiah adapted so easily and we constantly have struggles with Jamal. Sometimes I want to blame him? Wow does that throw on the guilt! I realize in my mind that he was older, has more baggage, was exposed to more....but realistically...sometimes I just want it to be easier.
