11/11/11

What would you wish for if you were given the chance to make just one wish? Would you wish to give your wish away? Would you make a wish that the wish of someone else would come true? Would you create a wish that could change the lives of hundreds of people you don't even know?

Lauren made just that kind of wish ... and today, it comes true.

Lauren was a wish-maker. She wished on first and falling stars, lucky clovers, dandelion seeds, coins in wells or fountains, lucky pennies, eyelashes on your cheek, necklace clasps that had rotated to the front, birthday candles, "bumps" on the head, feet raised over railroad tracks, and numbers that repeated in sequence on dates or time like 2:22 or 11:11. We get 12 repeated dates a year ... 1/1, 2/2, 3/3, 4/4, .... on up through 12/12. But, just how often do you get 11/11/11!? Today is simply a lucky, lucky day. Lauren would make sure of it.

So, we have too -- we've done all we can to make her wish a reality. Today, her book (the means to her wish) "Happily Ever After ... The Power of Perspective" is available on line -- and, as she wished, the proceeds will return through The Living Lauren's Legacy foundation to her favorite charities which will benefit thousands of wish-seekers. Every reader will learn how Lauren saw her life as a "Happily Ever After" and how in such short years, she was able to have such a powerful influence ... and that will help make YOUR wishes come true, just like she wished for.

The book turned out much more expensive than we had hoped, but it's a beautiful photo book (572 to be exact) to coincide with Lauren's writings and the expanded addition of her mom's view from close by.

We'll post segments of the book on the blog over the next few weeks and provide a text only edition as well.

Happy WISH COME TRUE day ... for you, for us, and for our angel Lauren!

With love from all of the David Webb family
