She is our wonder +

Doctors have come from distance cities just to see me.
Stand over my bed disbelieving what they see here.
They say I must be
one of the wonders - God's own creation.
And as far as they see they can
offer no explanation.



I will be able...






I will be gifted...










with love, with patients and with faith.

I'll make my way





I do believe that fate smiled down and she is our destiny. Just listen.
Happy Valentine's Day.
This is what love is all about.

Gwen, those are the longest, most beautiful eyelashes I have ever seen!!
You are the most amazing writer. Each time I check your blog, you not only bring me to tears, but you enlighten my spirit with the most brilliant perspectives on life, love and what is truly important. I carry Ivey with me in thought and prayer daily. I share your updates and pictures with my children so they recognize perfection through God's eyes. Thanks you for sharing sweet Ivey's life.
With love,
Diane Roberson
