Maddie and the March of Dimes

I have been reading a lot about this little baby Maddie, who died last week. She had a hard but lovely life, was born premature, and was teensy but beautiful. It makes me feel extremely grateful and also extremely rotten to think about how often I complain about these healthy, lovely, LIVING children of mine to read about a baby like this. I am thinking about Maddie and her parents this week and trying to remind myself how lucky - beyond lucky I am and what a good life I have.
