Go HERE to order.
I just learned that a blogger friend is making messy flower pins and headbands, selling them on Etsy, and giving 100% of the profits to Cora's Playground. They are beautiful and I ordered a bunch...you should to :) It amazes me to see everyone coming together and contributing their gifts and talents to try to support Joel & Jess and honor the memory of Cora.
While I am grieving the loss of precious Cora I am also so thankful that in her brief life she has touched thousands of people. I pray that through this loss we will have gained another brother or sister in Christ and that someday we can all celebrate together. We may never know (on this side of heaven) how many people have been changed by Cora, Jess & Joel... but I do know that I will never be the same. I pray that I will be a better wife, mother, daughter, sister, and friend and that the Lord will use me and Cora's story to bring Jesus to those who may not know him yet. I am forever grateful that the Lord entrusted Cora to the loving care of Jess & Joel and gave them the privilege of raising her, though the time was much too short. He could not have choosen a more perfect mommy and daddy for her and they have accomplished a job well done. Continue to love them and pray for them (and their extended family) as they take life day by day and treasure the memories of their sweet baby girl. We all love you and miss you, Cora. May Jesus hold you close until we see you again.
Remembering you with love...

Laura,
Hi how are you? Loved the picture and now I can put a face to the name Hunter.... We just wanted to say thank you sooooo much for your sweetness and friendship during our time with Jaylee at the hospital and at the funeral. We are so blessed to have met you as well! Yes this has been a life altering experience for us too, and I also thought the same thing about wanting to be a better person! It is amazing to me that one little girl could do so much for the world in such a short time! Joel and Jess are truely a wonderful example for us all! I worry about them in the coming days, and pray they have peace and comfort. Please keep me posted about their well being and let us know if we can do ANYTHING at all to help! Take care and we will keep in touch! I would love to get your address so we can send
x-mas cards and notes. Love to you and your family! thanks again for taking us in and letting us be a part of such a wonderul group of people!
love you!
