ProjectFocus Hawai'i Link s to Photo of Aubrey/Aubrey's photo of Jen!

[Guest guest]

Aloha All!

What a glorious Saturday evening it was for Aubrey and her " Skills Trainer from

Heaven " -Jen! I've found the first online photo of the two of them as we are

still waiting for our family to send digital photos by email. It is gorgeous and

clear, thus in it, you can actually see the photo that PFH Co-Founder,

Uesugi took of Aubrey and...?

You will eventually be able to see Aubrey's and her friends' photos at

Pictures of the PFH VIP Reception on Saturday night can be found today

at----(Aubrey and Jen are in Photo #7)

Here is an excerpt from the thank you note written to Laurie and last

night....

-------------------------------------------------------------

" We are still basking in the light you both shone upon our children last

night...it was such an ethereal experience for our family, that I believe it

will be a long, long time before our collective feet touch the ground again.

Soooo many precious moments...the " red carpet walk " for Aubrey and Jen...finally

seeing Aubrey's whole (!) blown-up photo took and really SEEING not only

Aubrey's outer, but inner beauty as a young lady for the first time

....watching Aubrey's Godfather (who has not seen her since she was in primary

school) walk up to her, shake Aubrey's hand and compliment her on her

photos....relishing in Aubrey's new SPED teacher's poignant reaction to Aubrey's

photo... What a gift! You ladies have no idea how far-reaching your gift will be

for our children in the years to come! 

Even though you both gave some hints along the way, I really was not prepared to

see the photo that Aubrey took of Jen. I truly believe that photo was taken

through Aubrey's eyes-through the eyes of God. (I will never care about holding

the camera steady again!) In this larger-than-life photo, the world can view

Aubrey's under-estimated understanding of life-her photography transcends

Aubrey's limited language and ability to express herself-FINALLLY!!!!!! 

....And then, when I read what Jen wrote about Aubrey, her words of love for my

child-well, I just lost it...and of course, in typical " Aubrey style " she

quickly leaned over and gathered all three of us in a looong group hug. (We love

you Ms. Jen!)

I pray someone in our family got a photo of those precious, precious moments!...

Thank you both so very much for which, without question, will be the most

profound and proudest night of my beautiful daughter's life!!! "
