Prayers for the Chapmans

Steven Curtis Chapman, the Christian artist that gave me the inspiration to adopt (which we are still looking into), has three adopted girls of his own. Two days ago, his youngest daughter, Maria Sue, was killed in a tragic accident. When I first heard it on the radio yesterday morning, I thought it was a joke. The five-year old girl was ran over by Steven's teenage son in their own driveway and flown to Vanderbilt Childrens Hospital in Nashville, but didn't make it. I can't even begin to imagine what the family must be going through right now. For those of you who can, please pray for them.

Here's a picture of the family. Maria Sue is the little girl in Steven's arms. It's hard to believe this family will never be able to take a photograph like this again.
