Happy Birthday Akeelah

Kelly Pracchia - 08:16am Jun 27, 2009 EST

I think that we all know how much of a gift Lauren is to so many of us here on Share, and even though she is gone for the weekend, I think we should all say Happy Birthday to Akeelah!!! Lauren, we are all thinking of you and Lance this weekend, and we all hope you find the peace you so deserve!! Happy 1st Birthday to your little Akeelah, I know she is smiling down on you both today!!

A moment in our arms, a lifetime in our hearts.  

Awww shucks guys! You gave me insta-tears of gratitude. It was such a relief for me this weekend that I didn't have to worry about people remembering my little girl. I knew so many amazing mommies here would and that it would make up for any friend or family that forgot. You guys are amazing.

Much love,
Lauren
