Courtney,Nick,and Family,
I found this beautiful message for you all,and I am hoping it can somehow comfort your heart. I know at times like this comfort is all we have to lean on,or to look forward too. I also hope it is comforting to know Neilie is in thee most wonderful,comforting place known to man! I can feel for you "selfishness",and who wouldn't...giving away their tiny,precious,beautiful baby girl? A time in our life when we have no choice. But I hope you choose to live happy,and remain examples to everyone around you,for Bryce,and for each other. For this is exactly what Neilie wants..to look down upon you,and see her happiness shining right through you! God Bless you all,and for anything,anytime,I am here! I will pray for you always! I love you,Michele xoxoxo
