Anni and I have been truly blessed to have known Raquel since she was a little girl. We have followed her life and been allowed to share in the many challenges and rewards she has experienced. Navigating each was never easy but she always held on to God's hand. He never left her alone and continues to use her for His glory. From conception to birth and to this very day we have marveled at His miracle, Anna. Others would have denied us of this Angel. Raquel and her family embraced and blossomed because of her. As Raquel so eloquently shared, special needs children require and return a very special love. To some Anna might be viewed as less than perfect. However to God, the Nieves family and to Anni. She is perfect in so many ways. A special thank you to God, to Raquel, her family, and to all those who care for these Angels. Their heart is pure, their smile infectious and their love is unconditional.
