Grace is Everywhere

Hello All,
We've shared this invitation/request with a few friends and family already, but we are "sending" it out officially now.
Last year, we lost our precious baby daughter Grace Elizabeth. She was born on January 4 and died the same day, just 10 hours later. The full story of our day with Grace is linked here - http://missionmoment.blogspot.com/2009/01/our-amazing-grace.html. Needless to say, those 10 hours, and the 9 months she lived with us in the womb will never be forgotten. To celebrate her short life on earth, and especially her peace and joy now in Heaven, we want to invite you to "seek grace" with us in the signs all around us... literally.
If there was anything that Grace taught us (and there was so much) it was that most blessings in life are unseen, or easily missed, passed by, or even unlooked for. So now, let's look! If at any time you see a "Grace" sign, ie. Grace's Nails, Grace's Deli, Grace's Chapel, please take your photo in front of it (that's key), attach it to an e-mail, and send it to contact@missionmoment.org
We are compiling a photo album of Gracie's pics, and we'd love to receive one everyday, until we're old and grey. It will force us to slow down and think of her especially in that moment. Please keep a look out, Grace is everywhere!
Peace and Prayers, Rebecca and Bill

You guys are just the CUTEST people I've ever met. And you know I mean that sincerely. Now I'm gonna be all over your little mission. You know, with my trusty iPhone, I'll be sending you Gracie photos left and right.

You guys just rock. Ask your little saint to pray for us, will you? :)
