Poignant, passionate, creative and inspiring, I loved reading "The Blessing Bowl". Heather, your first calling is, of course, as Samantha's mother and champion, but you have a very close second as a vivid story teller and writer. I hope you find ways (publishing??) to share your stories of love and hope to inspire others.Jan Holmes (Ayervais)https://www.blogger.com/profile/17010555933621127769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-683700514997462882.post-26651388291807476802007-07-26T08:48:00.000-06:002007-07-26T08:48:00.000-06:00What a beautiful story and a beautiful baby, Saman...What a beautiful story and a beautiful baby, Samantha is one lucky gal to have so many people in her life who love her so completely.<BR/>She is indeed blessed.<BR/>And, you, Samantha's Mom, may have missed your calling, selling names when you have the gift of words!<BR/><BR/>LynnLynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05133368797236200696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-683700514997462882.post-48936561352752629732007-07-25T23:33:00.000-06:002007-07-25T23:33:00.000-06:00SisterSimmsie.....very touching piece of writing.....SisterSimmsie.....very touching piece of writing...I could visualize Samantha's birthday party and felt the love of the party...
