Great Job SBLC Family!!

By


Thanks to those of you who came out, rooted, ran, or supported through positive thoughts! It was a fabulous brisk (ok, really cold for Austin) morning, and we joined the 4,000 who ran for this terrific cause. I personally kept myself going by thinking about the characters -- both Nya and Salva -- and the incredible way the story was brought together by strength and forgiveness. Way to DIG DEEP, SBLC!

    I wish we would have known about this - I know Alex would have wanted to go. I have never heard him so enthralled with a book before. He talks about Salva and Nya all the time, and I am now reading the book so we can discuss it. We've discussed concepts like this before, but this book, and you, have made them come alive for him - Great job!!! Can't wait for the next book!
