Thanks, Laurie. Happy Birthday, sweet girl...
Today Laurie would have been 22 years old. I would be putting up the giant cardboard "Happy Birthday" sign, singing to Laurie and just having fun with her. Instead, today, Katie and I are going down to the lake.
Back on April 21st, I blogged about the tape we found of Laurie practicing her piano playing and singing worship songs. So instead of giving her presents, this year we get a little present from Laurie. My favorite is "Jesus, Draw Me Close".
I Love You, Lord
Instrumentals
Jesus, Draw Me Close
Lord, I Give You My Heart
Open the Eyes of My Heart
Thanks, Drew. Thanks, Laurie, for this gift...I love you. Mom

I almost can't handle the a cappella part of "Jesus, Draw Me Close"
Wow.
Thanks for sharing. You still amaze me, Barb. I wish for you and your family peace and love, as always...

Thank you Barb for sharing alittle of Laurie with us. I listened to every song - and yes, I cried. I have to agree with Drew that the acappella on Jesus, Draw Me Close did me in. I am thinking and praying for you and your family today as you remember your beautiful daughter. May God continue to bless you and your family.
Thank you for sharing. I listened to the songs...she had a voice of an angel. I am crying here at work. *hugs & prayers*
Barb,
I was going to blog about this in the next day or so. I listened to this CD (Shelly gave me a copy) two days ago and I found myself singing along at one point - and I thought how amazing it was that Laurie was leading me into worship even now. Amazing.
Thought of you all and prayed for you today. Love.
still singing...I have it on my playlist and love to here her angelic voice. Prayers for you all and will email soon!
hugs! Jackie :)
