NieNie

Both Aron and I have felt moved, humbled, and inspired--as I'm sure so many are--by Stephanie Nielson's posts on the NieNie Dialogues about struggling through her painful recovery from a near-fatal plane crash. She's incredible. I can't even imagine. Here's an article about her, the accident, the story. She recently went back to the burn center for further surgeries and, while she was there, her kids would send little messages or bits of artwork. One night, as their father was leaving to visit Stephanie at the hospital, they made her Wild Things shadow art. Isn't that just the sweetest?
