When we were in the hospital I thought about what our Christmas card would look like this year.. should I get a good shot before Georgia started losing her hair.. should we all wear hats, I desperately wanted to send something that didn't reflect anything more than our family. Shortly after we arrived home I got our photos from the hospital shoot with Lynette Johnson, I thumbed through them and came upon the one, all it needed was one simple word.
Believe there is magic this time of year, believe that prayers will be answered, believe in the technology that modern medicine offers, believe in the power of non-traditional medicine, believe that you have touched our lives and made a difference. Believe in the human body and the human spirit. But if you choose to believe only one thing let it be Georgia, her strong will, vivacious energy and the ability to conquer whatever challenges lay ahead.
Merry Christmas
Wow. . .what a great post . . . Believe sure does sum it up. I do believe that this is going to be a hard road but that Georgia will come through just as strong and vivacious as she is today! She is an amazing little girl and is so lucky to have you and Brian as her parents. We love you guys! Merry Christmas
ReplyDeleteAlison, this card is so precious and meaningful. I added a little ribbon to hang it on our tree. Out of the many ornaments we have, it is the best one. Your family will be displayed on our tree every year so we always remember to believe. Merry, Merry Christmas, Friend. Love and miss you tons.
ReplyDeleteYour card is being framed so we will always have inspiration to Believe... to have faith and to have perspective. Thank you for being the family that you are. We are fortunate to have you all here as part of this neighborhood family.
