Alec and Aden’s movie, β€œKids Like Us,” has just been nominated for an International Emmy! πŸŒπŸ† The awards will be held on November 24 in New York City, and I couldn’t be more thrilled!

πŸŽ‚πŸ’– Today is my birthday, but what makes it truly special is that I get to share it with my incredible son, Aden πŸ’ͺπŸ’›. Even as he continues his fight against cancer, he amazes me every single day with his strength, his smile, and his heart. Today, we’re making the best of itβ€”laughing, playing UNO πŸƒ, and soaking up the simple joy of being together, even while he receives chemo.

As a mom, there is no greater gift than seeing your child push through something so hard with courage and faith. God has carried us through the darkest storms 🌧️ into moments like thisβ€”where I can look at both of my boys and say, β€œYou are miracles.” πŸ™ŒπŸ’ž

My birthday prayer this year is not for me 🎁, but for all of you: please, pick up the phone πŸ“ž and call a family member you may have drifted away from. Tell them you love them ❀️. Tomorrow is never promised, and love is too precious to leave unsaid.

I thank God every day for life, for healing, and for giving me the strength to stand tall for my children. ✨ Aden, thank you for teaching me what true bravery looks like. Aden, thank you for showing me what resilience really means. And to all of you who continue to pray for us πŸ™β€”thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Here’s to life, love, family, and faith. πŸŒˆπŸ’•
