Sierra

This absolutely gorgeous senior is a true miracle!! Almost exactly a year ago this precious family got the phone call that our worst nightmares are made of. Sierra had tragically flipped her car and was not expected to make it through the day. They gathered in the ICU waiting room clinging to each other and the faith in the literally thousands of prayers being lifted up. Minute by minute and hour by hour they had to wait for the news that she was still holding on,. It was just heart wrenching!

But God is faithful and has BIG plans for this beautiful girl's future! Her most severe injuries were all to her head. It was basically crushed. They feared so many different injuries in that first week. They weren't sure what her functionality would be. But they wanted her- any way God would spare her. They truly depended on Him.

It didn't take long to see God's hand at work. To see Sierra fighting in the way only Sierra can! They would see glimpses of her personality and sweet spirit, and knew God was answering prayers!

A year later, you would NEVER know by looking at her that she had been through so much trauma! She is flawless! Just gorgeous! She has been released by her doctors to back to doing the things she loves--- such as soccer!

I just get chills when I think back to that day.  It was so awful. But what stands out to me the most is how our wonderful little community pulled together! The high school created a parade of blue to show their support for their classmate and friend. T-shirts were sold and fund raisers held. It was amazing to see the love poured out.  I have no doubt that lives were changed that week.

So I am soooo thankful that this story has a happy ending. I am thankful we serve a living God who hears and answers our prayers and carries us through such hard times.  It was truly an honor to be able to capture the beauty and spirit of this precious girl!!

Thank you sooo much!! I am looking forward to watching Sierra soar in her future! =)
