Happy 3rd Anniversary!

Today is a very special day for us. We get to celebrate the miracle that took place in our life three years ago. Sierra received her precious heart August 3, 2006. We have had ups and downs since that day, but nothing that I would trade for these last three years we have been blessed to have Sierra with us. Thank you Nicholas, our hero whose sacrifice gave us life. We honor him and all other organ donors this day.

Happy anniversary to Ben and Peter. Also, to Shawn who celebrated his first year anniversary on the 31st of July. We love and miss all of you and honor you this day as well.

Yay for the 3 year mark! I will never forget that incredibly long night praying that a heart would become available and the relief and gratitude we felt when your dad called to tell us she had received one! Sierra is such a sweet, loving, special girl and I am so grateful that we have all been blessed with these three extra years to be with her! Here's to 85 more!!! :)
