A closer look at Hope (Dove) ♥ ~ January 2013

Close up of the Hope (Dove) print :)

Color Spotlight: Red (PS: My favorite color!)

The color red speaks volumes—it’s bold, timeless and oh-so-empowering. When wearing this color, even if it’s the smallest of accents in your outfit, you’re bound to stand out from the crowd. Red creates a sense of excitement and demands attention. It can be worn with many different colors but it is its ability to be a stand-alone that makes it rich and inviting. The really great news is it can be worn through all seasons.

For those of you who were born bold and courageous (or just want to feel that way), make a statement this season with red!

Still Praying ♥

I apologize for not having an up-to-date post about Miche items that have retired and sold out. It's been a hard couple of weeks with the tragic violence of our local shopping mall, then the unimaginable shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School. My heart and soul weeps for them all. 

One thought that keeps coming to mind is a few months ago, we lost a sweet young woman in our local community and even though she didn't have any children (yet) of her own - her family and friends nicked named her Momma, as she was always caring for the youngsters around her. 

Knowing Whitney was there, waiting to comfort and welcome those beautiful innocent children at Heaven's Pearly Gates, gives me some peace ♥  

I continue to pray for their family, friends, schoolmates, teachers... everyone!

Peace on earth and good will toward men ♥

Behind the name: Ariana & Alyssa

Ariana was named after the daughter of one of our Representatives who, at a trying time for their family, showed tremendous inner strength by staying at her sister Alyssa’s bedside. We named this Shell in honor of her and all women who stand by those whom they love in times of trial.

Ariana and Alyssa’s mom, Patricia, shares their family story:

My name is Patricia, and my inspiration for writing this are my daughters Alyssa and Ariana. Alyssa was diagnosed with ALL [Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia] on November 5^th, 2007—the day our lives changed forever. Alyssa was scheduled to get three years of vigorous chemotherapy. As you could imagine, we were all scared for her. She was only 6 years old when the doctors tried to explain this to all of us. The hardest part was watching her lose her hair on her birthday—November 25^th, 2007.This was the first time I’d seen my child not wanting to have a party or have friends and family over. She wasn’t interested in opening her gifts or having cake. But somehow she got past all that, and accepted her fate.

Alyssa would have talks with me, and tell me she wanted to have wings as pretty as butterflies, and be able to fly all the way to heaven. As you can imagine it was beautiful in a sense, and heart wrenching at the same time. I wondered if God had talked with her, and told her that she wasn’t going to make it through the treatments. Did she know something we didn’t know? 

As most of these children do, she endured many infections as well as pneumonia, and suffered two strokes. She was then unable to do things for herself. She couldn’t talk, walk, eat, or drink anymore. We weren’t able to hear Alyssa’s beautiful voice ever again or those special words that she loved to say was: “I love you whole bunches” and ”Bald is beautiful.” I’m reminded every day of how precious these words are to me. Through all this, I have become a prayer warrior for a lot of children who have all types of cancer. 

My daughters have taught me to never take life for granted and to always tell those around you how much you love them. Ariana, my oldest, was 16 at the time her sister was suffering through this. Sixteen can be a hard age for anyone, but it’s much harder when a loved one is passing away. Ariana was always by Alyssa’s side. We were living on God’s grace, mercy, and the comfort of his safe and loving arms. We were shown so much love throughout our community and will always be grateful for that.

On February 26, 2009, Alyssa passed away.  She finally received her beautiful wings.
