33 hours

I'm sitting here, stunned, utterly and eternally grateful, wondering how this all happened and thankful that it did. 

Thirty-three hours ago, my sister posted a link on facebook to a website which rallied people to collect money for the goal of giving Iva June an opportunity this summer like none that I could find here in Hampton Roads.  She will attend a Summer Speech Camp at Quilt Autism and Speech Center and hopefully learn perhaps, a little more how to communicate what is captured in her mysterious brain. 

I am in tears to have seen what the good Lord has done, completely taken aback to know that people care so deeply and am honestly overwhelmed by donations from the most unexpected places. In a short 33 hours ALL of the money was collected and not even some of my closest friends have even seen the link or know what's going on yet.  Please know MJ, Uncle Jim, Aunt Lynn, Katie and George, Charles and Cherish, Emily and Fred, Andrew and Nicole, Erin, Jenn and Josh, Aaron and Valori, and Isabella that you have touched our lives in a way that I will never ever forget. 

And for the rest of you who didn't have a chance to share in the joy yet, thank you for loving us on a daily basis and praying for our sweet girl of mystery.
