HAPPY BIRTHDAY...BIG NUMBER 3

The BIG Day began with a bubble bath...one of Faith's most enjoyed activities.
Now to opening presents, first with brother Gideon...wow, what is that?
Faith loves when her brothers play with her...Lightning McQueen and her bro
Faith prepares to open her next present with Big Sis Grace.
Already thinking ahead to the next present before this one is even open.
Surprise and amazement at the thoughtfulness of the gifts she received.
Falling asleep on the floor after a long fun birthday...ah this is nice.
Three years ago today Faith was born and we knew that we had an issue...just weren't sure what it was at that point.  Now 3 years later, we are all grateful to God that she is doing so well with her Trisomy 18.  Since November 2nd, Faith has dealt with surgery and sickness that lasted well over a month, but she is feeling much better and has picked up greatly on her energy level.  She is feeling better just in time for our trip to Give Kids The World.  This is a wish trip from Rainbow Connection, a local charity similar to Make A Wish.  We leave on Monday so Christmas will be a busy day of preparation.  We will try to give you a glimpse of our trip with some pictures and postings while in Florida.  What a present this will be...God bless us everyone!
