Always hug your children...Everyday

Calvin Steeke 4 years old.

This is a sweet little boy who has touched the hearts of so many people in his 4 years of his life. He (as well as the many kids I have do or will take care of) has become one of my children and part of the family. His life ended a week ago, last Sunday due to a farm accident. God has taken a special boy to be a special angel who will be strong for his family and the hundreds of people he has left behind. God allowed me to be a support their family on their tragic day. My favorite memories of Calvin are of his smile, fighting with him to come in for lunch, he always seemed to have dirt or food on his face and watching him line up the cars and tractors in his special order. He will truly be missed. God took a wonderful little boy to help him be a wonderful little angel to help watch over the loved ones he left behind. We may not understand the why of this but he does have a plan.
Through the sad time this family is going through they do want to spread words to help others out in any way they can. They want people who have kids on the farm to be more aware of the dangers. Also they are telling everyone with who has kids to "Hug your kids .....every day"
We have been wearing blue in honor of Calvin and lighting candles and leaving our porch lights on at night.
