MARCHING...

GIRL SCOUTS MOUNTAINS TO MIDLANDS TROOP 2844


The girls get their picture made with our state senator, Thomas Alexander

This was Sunday at our town parade... Faith was escorted by two sweet girls in our troop who took the utmost care, pushing her over a mile! I must say how much I love these little girls! They have renewed my "faith" in humanity. They include Faith in everything and actually she is the center of attention most of the time. I never imagined that perfect strangers could be be so accepting and love her so much. They all took turns signing her casts and questioning me, in detail, about her surgery, recovery, pain and possibility of walking. They wanted dates when she would be able to walk! It was sooooo cute! I cannot even begin to express how much good it has done me and Faith to be involved with these little girls and their families. Special, Special, Special! We saw lots of people we knew and everyone was commenting on how cute she was. We decked out her chair in sparkly things, bells and YES even LIGHTS on her wheels! She was the coolest chair there!~

I'm so happy that Faith has had the opportunity to meet these wonderful girls. I'm sure she will change their lives in ways you never know.

I love these pictures! How sweet of those girls to help take care of Faith. I am so thrilled to hear that they have showed so much interest in Faith. It will be them who will be Blessed beyond measure for knowing Faith! She seems like she must be a real sweetie!

Blessings,

How sweet. I want to sign Elizabeth up for Girl Guides next year I think she would like it.
I love how every picture you have Faith is so happy.
