Charlie Cooper

I have been thinking about this for a while now, and thought I would share. You know you are an old married couple when you sit in bed at night and watch the news. I love KSL, especially because I can keep up-to-date during the day at work, and watch it at night. A few weeks ago I saw a story about a little boy named Charlie Cooper. He is the most innocent boy ever. He got really sick a while ago, and was at Primary Childrens for 3 months before he finally went home sometime last week. His family also has a blog to keep family and friends updated on his progress. I have honestly been touched by this little boy's journey. It is so hard as a parent to have a sick child, and I can't even begin to imagine how his parents feel to be so helpless. But through it all they have been so positive. As I read his blog, (I can't stop now) I am truly impressed with the hope and strength that they have as a family. I honestly believe we chose our trials in heaven, and what great people to have chosen that one. I personally don't think I would make it. They have been an inspiration to me of sincere faith in Heavenly Father. Here is his blog address if any of you want to see this amazing little boy and this amazing family. We pray for him every night, and hope his family knows how wonderful they really are.

What a brave family. Their story really puts things into perspective. They will be in my prayers.
