5 year Wish Trip anniversary

Last month our family enjoyed looking back and reliving fond memories of Cicily's wish trip to Give Kids the World in Orlando, Florida back in 2012.   


This year we were very fortunate to celebrate the wish trip with a trip to Disneyland with our whole family.  

We are so thankful we've been able to watch all 3 of our girls grow up in these last 5 years. 

Cicily's wish trip and Give Kids the World has meant so much to our family.  If you want to read our feelings about it go here: http://cicilyspage.blogspot.com/2012/03/letter-for-give-kids-world.html or to relive Cicily's wish trip yourself, click on "Make A Wish" under site features on the left.  
To commemorate the 5 year anniversary of our trip together, we decided to donate to GKTW and get a paving stone that can stay at the Village.  We decided to put the words of Cicily's scripture on our paver: "Works of God made manifest"  (from John 9:3).  We thought this sentiment had dual meaning for the works that Cicily and GKTW both manifest.   

When Sophie is old enough to volunteer at GKTW, we hope to spend
 a family vacation back there donating our time and being "volunteer angels"
and visiting Cicily's star and our family's paving stone.  
Our forever thanks Make A Wish and Give Kids the World!
