What a great moment in life it is, when we can take Shelbi's tragedy and make good out of it in some small way.  When I can say, that through all her suffering, she has created so much good in the world.  She has made us laugh, love, cry with so many emotions.  We would go back if we could to have her back, to touch her, to hold her, to kiss her little bald head.

But, since we cannot do that until we meet her when we ourselves go to be with Jesus, we must let her live on, we must take her tragedy and do something good in the world and therefore, make some meaning out of all of this. 

With that being said, we were so thrilled to give out our first double scoop of happiness to a well-deserved, well appreciated family.  I felt so honored to pull up by their house, give out hugs, ice cream, Shelbi's Sweets and Treats t-shirts and  of course keys to someone who needed a car to get her daughter back and forth to Pittsburg for a lung transplant.   What a joy and as I did, I said, "Shelbi you did this.  You created this and gave out this car and made this family happy.  Shelbi and God."   It was the second best thing since Shelbi's passing, the first being the birthday rainbow. 

Please pray for Megan and their family as they travel on the 30th to Pittsburg to begin a process of tests and procedures and a lung transplant (due to the effects of radiation).  What a beautiful family.

Thanks to the Trewins who introduced us to this family and thanks to Vince for finding the car.  Thanks to all the volunteers for Shelbi's Sweets and Treats and so many donations to make this possible. 

Shelbi's life will have meaning.  This is just the beginning of the lives she will touch.  Pictures are posted...

Love, The Martin's
