I received Claire’s collage
this morning from Franchesca at Abiding Hope Collages. It put a HUGE
smile on my face! It is so simple yet so intensely meaningful.
Her reason:
“On May 5, 2009 we welcomed our
precious gift, Jenna Belle, our firstborn into this world. God allowed
her to grace our lives for 13 beautiful days. My hope is to honor her
life as she has forever changed my world. Faced with indescribable grief
that I will never understand, I have to believe that my greatest loss
was and still is her greatest gain. Living without my Jenna has changed
me to the very core. I am managing to gain some ground through my
artistic side, which I felt I lost when she died. This is all in her
memory. Most days it is just plain hard, but I am learning to see that
God is so big that He can make something beautiful out of something
tragic.”

Thank you, Franchesca.
