Free ... the dream within
The stars are crying
A tear
A sigh
Escapes from heaven
And worlds end
Breathe
The dream within
The mystifying
Free
The dream within
The stars are crying
A tear
A sigh
Escapes from heaven
And worlds end
Breathe
The dream within
The mystifying
We tremble and spin
Suspended within
Look beyond
Where hearts can see
Dream in peace
Trust love
believe
We tremble and spin
Suspended within
Free
The dream within
The voice is calling
A song
A prayer
From deep inside you
To guide you
Be
The dream within
The light is shining
A flame on the wind
Salvation begins
Look beyond
Where hearts can see
Dream in peace
Trust Love
Believe
We tremble and spin
Suspended within
Free
The dream within
The stars are crying
A tear
A sigh
Escapes from heaven
And worlds end
We tremble and spin
Suspended within
Look beyond
Where hearts can see
Dream in peace
Trust love
believe
We tremble and spin
Suspended within
Free
The dream within
The voice is calling
A song
A prayer
From deep inside you
To guide you
Be
The dream within
The light is shining
A flame on the wind
Salvation begins
Look beyond
Where hearts can see
Dream in peace
Trust Love
Believe
We tremble and spin
Suspended within
Free
The dream within
The stars are crying
A tear
A sigh
Escapes from heaven
And worlds end

Dearest Tina ...
your journey to your VICTORIOUS VBAC
took great determination, strength and courage.
You trusted your body and believed in your
ability to do what needed to be done.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart
for your trust and for blessing me with
the opportunity to witness your miracle.
Love, Patti

12/25/07 Patti ~ I want to thank you so much for all that you have done for us. I really can't express in words how grateful I am. This has been such a long journey for me and you helped me through that. Having Colby at home was the most amazing and the best day of my life. Thank you for being so kind and thinking about MacKenzie. Bringing her a gift was so thoughtful and made her feel special. I will never forget you. The photos were amazing and captured my beautiful little boy's birth that I dreamed would happen one day. Patti, I love you and you will always have a place in my heart.
"We never know how deeply an act of kindness can touch a heart."
Love, Tina
