Rachel's playground is well on it's way! We're up to $4,255 already, $5,745 to go - and that is before any fundraising! (and we have some fun ideas!) I cannot believe how generous everyone has been and am so excited to see how God is pulling this all together. The donations just keep coming in. I can hardly keep up with the thank you notes! Rachel is one amazingly loved little girl. I am so proud and so humbled all at the same time... proud of who she is and to be her Mama - and so humbled by God and the love of his people. Thank you! Here is the video I prepared for our "official announcement" at church today. It has pictures of the Ark we'll be building. My friend Denise has helped me to get things lined up with Learning Structures and did the formal announcement with me. She has been such a good friend...another blessing God gave me through Rachel.
On August 4, 2010 our hearts broke as we heard the Dr. say "she has anencephaly...these babies don't live" at our 19 wk ultrasound. The Dr. is wrong. Our precious daughter's time on earth may be short, but she will live for eternity with our Lord in heaven. During the few months we have her here with us, we intend to make the most of every second of it. Our hope is that she will leave behind more than a few short memories, but that she will leave a legacy of what it means to hope in Jesus.
Perfect, just perfect................
