I’ve been thinking of Declan all day today, as I do every other day. Today my mind keeps bringing me back to this image of Declan.

So small, so completely unaware of what was happening…where his life’s path was leading him, leading our family. I was introduced to a hero that day, my son. Over the days, weeks and months to follow we would come to see what a true hero is, how brave even the littlest human can be.

For today though I’m remembering my sweet baby, looking so small in that big bed. One of the indelible moments in my life.
