He is loved

Sometimes I think back to when I worked at a child crisis shelter. I think about the kids and their situations. Some that got happy endings to there difficult journeys and some that still had no end in sight to the their problems. And as I think about all of this I can't help, but to think about Burton and how lucky he is.

He has a mom and a dad who love each other.

He has a bed, a home, and food to eat.

He gets daily baths and clean clothes.

He has toys (probably too many).

And most important, he is loved. 

Every child deserves this, but not all children have this.
