Dreams Do Come True

I believe in Promise.

I believe that Dreams DO come true.

I wait with HOPE

AND I BELIEVE.

Someone else waited.

Three years later 

and months 

of holding on 

to HOPE...

Mary Grace Darsey.

For this child we prayed.

Today we celebrated.

Years ago, God put within Alisha 

a dream to make a difference

 in the life of a child.

Doors would open...

Door would close...

Last year a stocking was hung on the mantle

for Mary Grace

praying for doors to open in Ethiopia.

This year Mary Grace is the perfect gift-

child of wonder, child of grace.

We wanted to make it perfect for her.

Pink, pretty, and yummy 

and I got to use my milk glass cake plate!

One of our hostesses made the LEMONADE banner.

I used my candle holders, topped with mercury glass votives

and vintage pink Christmas balls.

Another hostess made the diaper cake.

Looks yummy atop a white plate stand, 

threaded with pink ribbon.

Can't have a celebration without balloons!

The banner spells 

"Mary Grace."

This is the tree from my pink room,

my favorite!

The song keeps rolling around in my head...

I am a Promise

I am a Possibility

I am a Promise

with a Capitol "P"

I can be anything, 

anything God wants me to be!

Yes, Mary Grace, 

you are a PROMISE 

and 

for you, There is POSSIBILITY

WITH A CAPITAL "P."

Dreams Do Come True, 

I Believe, 

Bonnie:)
