This past week we have been blessed by visiting angels-
our dear friends Becky & Ben.
Becky and I found each other through our children
who have similar physical challenges.
Even though I live in the West, and she lives in the East,
our hearts are knit together in a way that I can't express with words...
the feelings are a little bit too big, and a little bit too sacred.
Becky and Ben were supposed to fly home today,
but yesterday afternoon, Ben started to struggle with his breathing
and wasn't able to get enough oxygen.
He didn't improve over night, and so Becky has to postpone her trip home
so she can take Ben to the hospital.
My home feels so sweet as their spirit still lingers here....
I can still smell Ben's hair on my shoulder.
It didn't want to say good bye,
but I am so sad that they have to stay under these circumstances.
If you have a quiet moment today,
please say a little prayer for our two visiting angels.
They bring heaven with them wherever they go.
We love you dearly, our sweet celestial friends!
Some people come into our lives and leave footprints on our hearts
and we are never ever the same.

Sharing the air they breath...

Aaawww, Those pictures are SO precious. I pray that all goes well.
April, I love the pictures. They are so sweet. Those boys have waited for a long time to have a good visit. You have touched the hearts of many of us who love Ben and Becky. We are all twined together now. I check in on your family frequently. Thanks for taking good care of our little angele and angele mom.
We LOVE you too. Thanks for this sweet post. I'm touched. Call me in the morning. :)
What an inspiring story of friendship and love! We'll pray for Ben. So happy you guys found each other!
I'm so glad you finally got to actually meet. I know Becky means a lot to you! What sweet pictures!
