Mary, August 29th, 2010 We went to church...Yeah

Yeah ...we finally got to go to church. It has been such a long time for us. We got the help of people to help put her in the van  and then at church they helped up get her out and then the reverse order to go home. I was really  great we got to see everyone, but Mary was wiped out when we got home...she slept along time. It was good for her to get out and visit with everyone at church for sure and the kids came up and visited with her...and her face lite up and she was ear to ear with smiles. I was glad to see her so happy.

God Blessed me with Mary

I made this blog for my daughter, Mary, who is currently 11 yrs old. She is a blessing for sure. She was born with a heart defect and required open heart surgery at 6 days of age. We have been through a long journey at this point. It has been truely worth it. She is a special Angel from God!! I hope you enjoy our journey with us. This is all about my girl who I love so much.
