Today is the day!!!
It's Transplant day!!!
Today I'm going to dedicate this post to the little girl somewhere in the world who is saving Lyla's life....
Dear Lyla's perfect match,
I will never know who you are but I know our paths will cross someday. You could be the stranger we pass on a walk and smile and say hi to, you could be the little girl sitting next to Lyla on her first day at school, you could be the daughter of one of my friends, you could be our next door neighbor, you could be the president someday or a famous actress or a Wimbledon tennis champion. I will never know who you are but I do know that you are an angel and your parents are heroes for creating your life and saving my daughters life. I will be grateful every single day for the rest of my life. I will think of you when Lyla gets to experience the everyday joys of life that I hope you are experiencing. I will whisper thank you when Lyla can write her own name, reads her first book, rides a bike, plays in her first tennis match, gets an A on an exam, graduates highschool, gets her first job, and walks down the aisle someday. You'll forever be in Lyla's heart and have put her parent's broken hearts back together. Thank you forever and ever ❤️

Glory to God for this divine connection, through Him it was made possible. Nothing is a coincidence. Continued prayers for the doctors & all the medical team that tirelessly give of themselves to help & heal. We are forever grateful to you. To lovely Lyla she is the princess of the King & He will continue to care for her every breath. Mommy & Daddy you continue in the strength that you have been given by God, do not grow weary & if you do, just read these messages & hear the love, prayers & support of your tribe. You are not alone, we LOVE YOU.
