As I sit here thinking about the last 7 years since Megan was born, I am amazed at God amazing grace. He has given us so much to be thankful for. Megan has been a blessing to us and to those who know her. As may know we did not know that she was Down syndrome untill after she was born. Megan has been a joy (as stubborn as she may be), her smile can just light up a room. Steve and I give full credit to God who has given us our stength when the days were dark and long. I found a quote that is dated March 20 (Megan's Birthday) "When we make ourselves vulnerable, we do open ourselves to pain, sometimes to excruciating pain. The more we love, the more we are liable to be hurt... But our do not grow if we insultate ourselves from pain." Madeleine L' Engle. I am reminded of this every year on her birthday. As much as we tink that we can do do something, we can through God and it is though Him that our souls can grow.
So thank you from the bottom of our hearts to everyone who has been there along the way, thoughts, prayers and words of encouragement. We love you.

Yes, she is a true blessing to us. She is a true gift from God, yes their has been some enormously hard days for you guys- and never thought the tears would stop, but they did I think of her as a little butterfly- she has come out of her little cocoon and is a beautiful little girl. We love her to death.
