Last night after posting my blog, I indulged myself, (no not with chocolate covered rice krispies treats, I already did that remember) and did a little web/blog surfing. I am just in awe at the talented women out there that do so many creative things, not only on their blog but in their life! Then there's me, way down on the other end of the spectrum, but today this isn't about me. It's just fun to look, get ideas and a little inspiration and hopefully some motivation. Anyhow, on a few of these pages I noticed that there was a common link. So I clicked it and read a tragic story about a couple who were in a private plane crash and are in an intensive care burn unit in Arizona with severe burns over their bodies Him 30% her 80%. Unfortunately, I was too late to participate in the group fast but still felt like I wanted to do something. So I thought I'd at least talk about it here and bring it to your attention so you can decide a way you might be able to help too. Through prayers, donations, whatever. Many bloggers/websites are donating a portion of their sales to Christian and Stephanie. (Look for the link on the right of my blog) Even this morning when I checked my email I had received my LDSLiving update and this couple was mentioned there and how this story and her blog have reached across the world. Hopefully we can keep it going. Just reading this women blog you could feel the love that she has for life and her children. We just never know how we can influence or affect another human being and Stephanie obviously has touched many people lives which is evident from seeing how many people are helping them. Amazing.

I too, have been so taken with the blog response for this sweet couple. It has made me want to be a better Mom and wife, and do fun out of the ordinary things.

I just keep thinking about them and pray that this will allow them the opportunity to raise those children and then bless someone elses life.


ps. where did you get the church's button?
