I also remember when she was "Kersen" blue-lips and all. Oh what a miracle child she and SO many children who are blessed to come into New Day's care are!! And I love how God is so into the details of things, that both Maria and Kevin were adopted into families that live so close together, that they are able to maintain a connection for their precious little survivors!! I love them BOTH!! <br /><br />Yet another reminder of why it is SO important to search our hearts and pray for these children and give financially in any way that we can. God is able to use that money (and MULTIPLY it!) in big ways for the cause of those who need it the most. How often do we go out for a family dinner and drop $40-50 without thinking twice?! So if everyone who reads this would simply trade in even one family night out for the sake of donating those funds to a precious child in need of surgery... that amount will be tripled if you do it now! Oh please do... not only will the child be blessed, but you will too, knowing first hand that you may have just likely contributed to a life-saveing and most definitely life-enriching surgery for a child in desperate need! I can't think of anything mroe rewarding than that!!!TanyaLeahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06273839306382041488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7295309110117449262.post-29080691625656337112011-09-10T09:41:18.522-05:002011-09-10T09:41:18.522-05:00WE LOVE YOU MARIA!!!!!!!!!!!

You are a sweet little miracle of God! <br /><br />Kevin and Maria were best buds in the Healing Home, and it is by the grace of God she lives only one state away from us! We've been able to get them back together once and we cannot wait until the 2nd reunion!<br /><br />These precious stories are building my faith!!!!!!!Lainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17793604475629395024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7295309110117449262.post-78272714608716518792011-09-09T12:54:37.769-05:002011-09-09T12:54:37.769-05:00What a great story! One I hadn't heard before!...What a great story! One I hadn't heard before! Honestly, I htink that was part of the presence of God I felt when we are at New Day. You're there, where the work of God is being SO clearly done, and you are surrounded by so many kids who may not have made it if not for God's hand and New Day! To be surrounded by that is an amazing thing. Each of these kids is SUCH a miracle!!!<br /><br />Thanks for sharing the stories!Jennahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12327872107826129535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7295309110117449262.post-87295977871189340422011-09-09T10:19:14.547-05:002011-09-09T10:19:14.547-05:00Oh Carrie!

Anyhow...I got a heads up from Hannah's post and I'm heading over to give now. On a side note, I have to say...I'm so happy you haven't changed your header photo;-)!<br /><br />Love,<br />TamTamihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15444310995105378298noreply@blogger.com
