Your talk was so encouraging to me and I have already told many people about it! I will think of you everytime my daughter lays her self down on the floor to throw a fit! “It’s not about me!, It’s not about me!” May God bless you and your family as you continue to seek God’s will and direction. You will be in my prayers.” Candie
