I don't know if I ever imagined swings in heaven until today, but I'm sure that they are there.

My nephew VJ passed away this week after a long and hard battle with hypo-plastic left heart syndrome along with plastic bronchitis. Throughout his fight, we saw many miracles. There were days the doctors said he wouldn't make it through the night but he did. There were situations where they said things wouldn't turn around and without medical reason, they did. Finally, this week, God and VJ said 'enough'. Enough of this broken world, it's time to go to heaven.
When I look at this picture all I can imagine is that this is exactly what VJ is doing right now in heaven. Swinging, laughing, and having a great time.
VJ, in the short time you were here, you changed our lives forever. I love you. I look forward to the day when I will see you again.
