In case you haven’t heard, the 5 year old daughter of Christian music singer Steven Curtis Chapman was killed yesterday. Chapman and his wife, Mary Beth, have three biological children and three adopted children from China. The youngest, Maria, was killed when one of the older boys accidentally hit her with a car. I don’t know the Chapman’s personally, but I know that they are good people and that they are Christians. So please join me in praying for them during this difficult time.

As a parent, I am shuttling kids around all the time. Everywhere I go, the parking lot is full of children…church, school, the play ground, the park, the library. One of my greatest fears is hitting a child! This heart-breaking story will definitely serve as a reminder to look very carefully before you back up.
