This is Peyton’s picture that we were blessed to be gifted with at the Fashion Funds the Cure show tonight. Unlike all the other pictures, I am the only one without at least a sliver of my head in the shot…which I am freakishly grateful for! I am horrifically unphotogenic and this shot certainly showcases Peyton’s beauty without trying to figure out “why is she making that face?”
But this picture is very special to me because for the first weeks after Peyton’s diagnosis, I spent a lot of time holding her hand. She would just hold on to me for hours at a time, while sitting in my lap or laying together in bed. Even when she was asleep she would reach for my hand to hold.
So, without even knowing it, Pepito’s amazing photo caught the special relationship we share.
I have a whole update to post about the fashion show itself, and I have to wait for pictures to be emailed from some wonderful friends before I can really tell you all about it. Let’s just suffice it to say that Peyton rocked the runway, she made a memorable moment of the night and a LOT of hearts were touched by all the special girls who could be there.
f.r.o.G….fully relying on God

What a hauntingly beautiful picture – one to treasure.
It's also a good advert for your budding nail bar!!
Look forward to hearing news of the fashion show.
