The times I've had tears in my eyes as I've read a book have been few and far between, but that's what happened as I began "High Calling: The Courageous Life and Faith of Space Shuttle Columbia Commander Rick Husband," written by his wife, Evelyn Husband.

Husband was a man of incredible abilities and, more importantly, incredible faith. Beyond description is a photo of Evelyn Husband and her children, taken at the landing site, all smiles and seemingly without a care in the world ... not knowing that the Shuttle has already broken up. Just a few pages in, and I'm touched beyond words. In fact, I've got to go. I've got to pick the book back up. It's that amazing.
