Miller's 1st MLK day.

Today, Miller and I had to go to my dentists office. Its about 40 mins from our house.

While Miller is a realllly good baby, hes not a huge fan of long car rides yet. So about 1/2 way there he started getting a little fussy - so, we talked! The topic: Martin Luther King and why we celebrate a day just for him. He instantly stopped fussing and just listened!

While I talked, and Miller listened, I too reflected on how monumental Mr. King was for our country. What an incredible legacy he left behind. What I love most about his legacy is that he was truly a man of great love. He had a love for ALL people, not just one race.

I believe that God gave that incredible man a dream. He obeyed God. If we all acted out the dreams that God gave to each of us, instead of living out of fear - I believe that this world would be A MUCH better place.

Just something to think about!
