What a sweet blessing this would be. God works for His good and this sounds like He has just the perfect plan for Claire and you. You've documented this moment in such a lovely way. The pensive photo of Claire is perfect for the story. So special.
Beautiful picture of Claire and beautiful journaling. So hope the funding will come through for you. (The blue elements are perfect with her beautiful eyes!)
Such a beautiful page for your story (I love the gingham and cluster behind Claire's photo). I hope the funding is approved and everything turns out well.
