"There are two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle; the other is as though everything is a miracle." -- Albert Einstein
Today my youngest daughter and I helped out at KEEN (Kids Enjoy Exercise Now), a fitness program for kids with developmental and physical disabilities that helps them develop friendships while engaging in a community activity. Our task was to stuff envelopes with invitations for the organization's upcoming Annual Dinner and Silent Auction.
We worked at a table with many other very nice volunteers who we met and talked to. But we also had the chance to see several of the kids, or "athletes," engaged in a variety of recreational activities. Despite their disabilities, they were working hard at exercising, and appeared for the most part to be having a great time doing it. I couldn't help thinking that each and every one of them is a miraculous child, as are my own children and yours too.
