Eight Heart Birthdays!

Eight years ago today, Lauren received an amazing gift of life -- her new, strong heart.

As always I'm overcome with emotions and can only say "thank you" to the family that made these eight years of heart birthday celebrations possible.


A few of the Lauren stories I've shared over the years:

Happy New Year! (2009)
One year ago (2010)
Happy Heart Birthday! (2011)
Donate Life (2012)
New Strong Heart Day (July 28, 2014)
Thirty-three weeks, three days (2014)

Also, I've finally fixed the broken video link from the time years ago when we shared Lauren's birth (and early years) story with our church in Fairfax, VA -- A Defining Moment. Please note that this video comes with a kleenex warning. :)
