God has used her to touch so many lives. I have a little boy who is gearing up for open heart surgery next month. He is 2 months old, and I am reminded by your story just how precious life is. I don't know what my family would do if we didn't have our faith in Christ, and I am touched by your walk with Him as well. I pray God gives you comfort and peace. I look forward to meeting your Annabelle in heaven someday!

Thank you so much, Rebecca, for taking the time to relay to everyone those private moments and to once again share your strong faith that has touched so many, including myself. We may never see each other on this earth but I know one day, in our beautiful Home called Heaven, I will get to know each of you. I have lost a child so I know the hurt that is in your heart and i also know the comfort of knowing the joy of having her with Her Jesus in Heaven. Thank you again for all the times you wrote to us and know so many continue to lift your family in prayer as my husband and I do(and many friends) from here in North Carolina.

I just shared your comments with my boss at work, and I told her, I do not know that I would have that much strength. We worship and honor the same Lord and I know with Him, all things are possible adn He is always there. I can not begin to tell you how much closer my prayer life is and daily walks with God are since her precious birth. I thank you for Annabelle as she has brought me back to something I have missed for a few years. <BR/>Remember Phillipians 4:13 - "I can do all things through He who strengthens me."<BR/><BR/>I will continue to remember each of you in prayer. I have never experienced the loss of a child and that is great fear of mine as a mother. But, God calms all fears and carries you when you feel like know one can help.
