    Where's Our Mama?
    Such a sweet story! Set in 1910 France, two children who have lost their mama have trouble finding her only because they see her as the best, the wisest, the most beautiful. The gendarme (French policeman) is astonished to find that finally she is just a mama like everyone else's. For fun, read it with your best French accent!

Thanks, Barbara. I love Steven Curtis Chapman. He and his family have been through an awful time but their faith has sustained them. Thanks for sharing his new song.

I was blessed to see and hear him perform this beautiful song at the Women of Faith conference in Anaheim. He spoke of how we are one breath away from our loved ones in heaven thanks to Jesus' sacrifice for us on the cross. God has blessed Steven Curtis with an amazing talent to communicate Christ's love for us! If you ever have the chance to see him in concert- GO! It is a life-changing event.

To digress, just wanted you to know the new "Gifts 2 How People with Down syndrome Enrich the World" is out and is getting great reviews! The amazon link is: http://www.amazon.com/Gifts-People-Syndrome-Enrich-World/dp/1890627968

Thank you Barbara for encouraging us as mommies and patriots! God bless you!

He played this at Women of Faith here in DC, too. Not a dry eye in the house. Lots of us were openly sobbing.

His story is so full of love and faith.
