Happy Birthday !!

There have been times in the past that we weren't sure Grace would get to this day, it's not something we really spoke out loud often, but those thoughts have lurked in the back of our minds at times such as watching her be put into a helicopter to fly to a better hospital, or as she's being wheeled into a surgery room for 10 hours. But here she is, now an 18 year old young adult.
She and I were talking a while back about how much she misses getting birthday cards in the mail. It seems that Facebook and texting have taken the fun out of getting real mail. As a surprise I asked some fb friends to send her cards to surprise her for her bug 18. She started getting cards and they just kept coming, one day she got 20!!!! When I told her what was going on she lived it. What a simple, easy way to help Grace know she is loved. She received 61 cards by her birthday! Thanks to all that helped!
