A message from Heavenly Father, that Ella Williams gave me just now

I will share with my family this letter I just wrote to Glo because I don't want to forget this.

I have had so many beautiful experiences over this past year. I have tried to share them with Glo and on the blog but I know I have forgotten some of them.

Dear Glo,

I just thought I would share this with you in a letter and with the family on the blog before I forget.

Ella Williams called me today. I talked to her just now and she told me about a dream she had. In her dream she was talking with an old girlfriend and her friend was telling her about all her troubles. She was telling Ella how hard life was for her and Ella said she was feeling so sorry and sad for her friend. She was feeling burdened by the troubles her friend was telling her about.

At the end of the dream Ella had the following thought: "Sometimes, people walk a road of suffering they do not deserve because they will need to help others in the future". This was the message Ella heard. Then she woke up and she had a thought and it said "you need to share this dream and this message with John Kennedy".

She called me today to tell me this story and I just thought it was so nice. She feels and I believe it was a message from Heavenly Father to her for me. I told her how thankful I was for her to tell me and I told her it means a lot as I have had so many thoughts of guilt and self recrimination. Did I do something bad to deserve this? Am I really a bad doctor and a bad person like the people a the hospital are saying I am? Were Larisa and I completely wrong when we felt we should come her? Was our inspiration so off and wrong?

I know God lives and I am thankful he is mindful of Mommy and me. I do not see why this has happened to us but I am comforted to know it is not because we deserve or have earned it, it is so we can help others in the future.

Love,

Papá

The FIRST of the Best Days of My Life

I'm always amazed when people can answer the question, "What was the best day of your life?" For me, I've never had a specific answer. The typical response of "my wedding day" doesn't work for me, because in all honesty, our wedding day was pretty sad with no family in attendance. The second most popular answer of "the day my child was born" only conjures up feelings of pain, misery and exhaustion for me. Really, up to this point, the best day of my life is anytime my family is together, and we are laughing, and talking, and ... being together. I guess if I could string all of those moments into one solitary day, that would be the best day of my life. Everything changed though on Tuesday, October 27, 2015. In fact, I feel quite relieved now, knowing that I can answer the proverbial question successfully and succinctly, for on that day, Anneliese Margaret Kennedy joined our family, and there has never been a better day in my life.

SURPRISE!!

When the pizza guy came to the door last night, here's what John saw: It took a few seconds for John to process who the pizza delivery man was, but when he did, he was incredibly happy (and couldn't stop saying "heeeeyyyyy....". It was Jared Moran, John's best friend. And me, I just knelt down, right then and there, and began repenting of all the lies that I have told over the last four months, hiding this most amazing surprise :-) I told Sarah the other day that I was glad to see the light at the end of the falsehood tunnel, because if I kept this up much longer, I was destined to end up in liars' hell... Jared ran the Air Force marathon with John last year. It was his first marathon, and from what he told us, his last. However, he called in June and said he was coming again, but I was supposed to keep it a surprise from John. I'm not sure what changed his mind, but we sure are glad he did. John hates runnings marathons alone, and ther...

Stuck Between a Rock and a Hard Place

I'm writing this, not as a complaint, but as a plea. If anyone has any advice, I would greatly appreciate it. My children are talented. In fact, every child that I have ever met is talented in some way. That's the fun thing about meeting kids--discovering those hidden talents. Some of the talents my children possess are very public--you guessed it...music. Some aren't so public--kindness and generosity. My kids are frequently judged by other children because of their musical talents. Other kids see them as "snobs" because they play their instruments well and because they are willing to share those talents whenever asked. My kids never play with arrogance. They recognize that they are better at music than most kids their age, but they never, ever show it. In fact, they are very generous with compliments towards other kids and their efforts with music. I have raised them to appreciate anyone who tries to do anything with music--it's ...
