What a blessing!!!
 

I am watching abc's "Extreme Makever: Home Edition" and yes...all of the episodes tend to be tear jerkers but they have this boy on right now that is just amazing!!! He is 19 (I think) and he was born without eyes and without the ability to straighten his arms and legs...which means he can't walk OR see. He surgically got glass eyes...but will never see. he is in a wheel chair, even tho he is not paralyzed.

Ok...so he just said something that made me cry (again...this pregnancy hormone stuff is KILLING me :D ) he said "I see being blind..not as a disability, but as an ABILITY. People that can see tend to judge people and things by what they see on the outside. I don't have that choice. I see people for who they really are. For what is inside. There are a lot of adjectives like 'black, white, red' and all of those things mean nothing to me. Everyone is the same."

of course...I didn't type that word for word but it was pretty close :D

It is just amazing how someone like this...who people tend to feel sorry for...can be so positive, loving, and so inspiring.

This is a shining example of how God can bless people through others who may not have everything we have. Someone in his position is a blessing to his family..and others. Just goes to show...God does NOT make mistakes!!! He makes miracles...and blessings.

I'm watching it too Mandee.

Thanks for letting us know it's on. I love this show and always forget to watch it. There was a house built by Extreme Makeover in my city about a year and a half ago. I volunteered one night and got one of their tee shirts.

That was great to hear Sandi again. And some dress she was wearin huh?! :D

Sometimes I don't like that show very much, but tonight it was great!:thumbup:
