The director of the Butterfly Program asked if I would participate in the program by sharing our story of Sarah. I was honored and overwhelmed by this invitation. Brian offered support by helping me write my speech. I am grateful for the opportunity I had in talking about our special Sarah, her life, and what she taught us. It was a memorable day for Brian and me.

Mom called and told me about how well things went today. I am so proud of you! I knew you would do an excellent job. I am sure people were touched by your story and your uplifting outlook even during difficult times. Sarah's life will always touch those around you. I really like your outfit, too. Great color choice! Congrats on a job well done!!
Rats! My good luck email was one day too late!! You look amazing in your torquoise and black and the beautiful necklace of Sarah is the perfect touch. I hope we get a good phone call in soon so you can share the details of the events!
Beautiful outfit!I am realizing that until I saw that picture I never noticed how much taller Brian is than you. Thanks for sharing about your day, I have been thinking of you.
What a sweet opportunity to share your story with people who know what it's like to go through similar challenges. I've always been so impressed with hospice services--the people who choose to do that work on a daily basis are usually amazing at it and make such a difference in the lives of their patients and patients' families.
I know you are relieved to have your hospice talk behind you. How satisfying it must be to know you did so well, touching so many people that they would give you a standing ovation! How I would have loved to have been there! Your beauty, composure and ability to speak served you well.
Your mom shared a few of the details of your luncheon. I think Sarah's story continues to touch hearts because you have been willing to share yours. I don't think there could be anything more tender than a mother sharing the experience of losing a child. What an instrument you are in God's hands.
What an amazing thing you were able to do in Sarah's honor. You truly are an amazing example to everyone around you!

I understand you did a wonderful job at this conference. You look beautiful in the picture (Brian, you look pretty too!) I am sure Sarah was looking down upon you and telling all of her angel friends that "that's my mama!"
Oh Christine, what a beautiful gift you gave to others. I'm sure so much emotional energy was put into it and the listeners were so grateful.
You will notice Butterflies all around you. We are so proud of you and Brian to speak at the Hospice Luncheon during such a tender time. However, I know those that were with you had their own aching story. I'm sure the love and compassion in that room was palpable.
Hospice is truly the gift of Angels.......
Hugs to Your family and little doggie!

I was praying for you! I am glad it went so well. I would love to hear your talk someday. I am sure Sarah's spirit carried you through the whole thing. That is truly a gift to all those around you. You probably gave more people strength that day than you will ever understand. Great job!
you are both so wonderful to help and inspire others.
