A lot of times we don't know the reason these things happen, but that God has a reason and we shouldn't question it. Your Sara does sound like she was a miracle/blessing from God.. It is just so hard for us to watch our wee little ones go through so much at such an early age... I believe that God is there with us, guiding us every step of the way ... My DD Amanda as born with a cleft palate and they couldn't do surgery until she weighed 10 lbs and that was at 3 months.. I still haven't brought myself to do a layout, to me she was the most beautiful baby no matter what she looked like, but to others it's a little bit of a shock.. But through surgerys and orthodontist work she is now the beautiful person she is today, and not just on the outside, but on the inside as well!! Debbie, this was probably very hard for you to make and share with others, but that's what scrapping is all about, not just creating something beautiful, but it also acts as wonderful therapy.. I'm sure this is a layout that you and Sara will treasure forever!! Thanks for sharing it with your blogging friends!! <br /><br />Your layout is beautiful!! I love the fussy cutting and the doily frames around sweet little Sara's photo... Take care, Debbie!!!

How scary it must have been for you, and what a wonderful gift it must have been to have her go through the surgery and recover from her weak heart. Children are such a gift through God. I thank God he brought two beautiful babies into my life. One through biology and one through adoption.Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03657111728721119197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4332889335611848290.post-43871974224838810012010-12-11T22:34:19.484-05:002010-12-11T22:34:19.484-05:00It's a beautiful page.
