I did a bit of searching, to find a blog or information about who was Cambria, and what was going on with her... I emailed Danielle and got the sweetest note back, telling me a bit about herself and her precious little girl, Cambria.... "She just turned 3 years old November 5th and what a blessing!! The doctors told me not to expect her to live to see her second birthday, but I don't listen to them and Cambria definitely has her own agenda" . She has a genetic terminal disease called Spinal Muscular Atrophy. Danielle`s goal for next year is to write a bit more - it's very therapeutic for her, she says - but as a single mom to a child who requires 24/7 care she tends to put it on the back burner. She says 2013 is going to be an awesome year though!! She also mentioned that she called her, her little lovebug, so ladybugs are special to her. I had included some ladybugs on this card, and she is her miracle... so that card, was the one she picked.
I could almost feel God`s presence as I talked with this new friend that He has brought into my life through my cards today. Not just any customer, but a young mother, who is living her life, with Him as her guide. She gives Him all the glory for giving her this precious gift, her miracle baby, Cambria. His encouragement today for me, that through them, through my note cards, someone else was encouraged was a gift. It was almost a confirmation that whatever else I wanted to do this year, He thought these inspirational cards, should be included in that list.
What a moment... I have become a follower on Danielle`s blog and look forward to keeping up with this precious young Mother as she takes care of her miracle baby. http://cure4cambria.blogspot.com/ Take a look if you want to be blessed by what God is doing in their lives. Put them on your prayer list, pray for that miracle for them.
Love,
