I am so sorry for your loss and so thankful for your godly example. May God strengthen you and bless you. To quote a favorite song:

"I know that I will not be left
Forgotten in the grave
But from destruction Thou O, Lord
Thy holy one will save."

You are truly an inspiration to all of us that know this touching story of little Grace~ As much as all of you wanted to hold her for just another day is as much as Our Lord needed her to come home.May the Lord continue to bless you and your family with a lifetime of always seeking the grace given to us by Him. Knowing that all things work for the good for those who love Him~ Thank you for choosing life......
