Wink Around the World

Caleb celebrates his 6th birthday this week!
My little miracle turns 6!
He's old enough to be in kindergarten!
He has 2 wiggly front teeth!


To an outsider looking in, his physical capabilities haven't changed much since he was a baby.
He body isn't able to hold his head, to sit or to stand.
His mouth doesn't know how to eat.
He needs help to breath.
His eyes don't always see.
His muscles need help to stretch and reach.
He loves to be held.


Yet...
insiders know


Caleb lifts
His smile radiates
He breathes hope
He winks
He reaches out
He holds us


Caleb loves. Really loves.
His little wink reminds us every day that love is his mission.
So this year Caleb has a special birthday wish for each of you.





WINK





Find a way to love someone. Really love someone.





*lift* smile* hope* wink*
*reach out* hold*





If you'd like to take the challenge, leave us a comment telling us where you're from - then spread the word! Let's see if we can share a Wink around the World for my little boy who has never uttered a word, yet who says so much- with a little wink.
