Annalee Grace Sullivan was born on April 7, 2003 and lived the life of a playful, spiritually sensitive, musical child until she was 3 1/2 years old. On January 21, 2007 she suffered an hypoxic brain injury from a seizure caused by undiagnosed Addison's Disease.
In spite--or because--of her physical and cognitive limitations, Annie was a blessing to all who knew her. She died on March 25, 2011, and today stands in the presence of Jesus--completely whole and without disability.

Jesus Loves Me . . .
I hesitate to do this to you, but sometimes it's good to reminisce. Here is a video of Annie from 2006 when she was about three years old, singing one of her favorite songs.

Such a sweet memory! Many prayers that you all will enjoy times like this again really soon. Love, Carolyn
Thanks, Carolyn, for the prayers to hear her sing again--sometimes she "sings" in the morning in her bed, but I want to hear some words to go with it! BTW, she still loves this song--she has a little musical lamb that plays Jesus Loves Me, and everytime I wind it up, she gives me a big smile.
lord, thank you for loving us. thank you for your plans and hope for our future. thank you for giving us annie and for all her little life has done for YOU!
For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known. And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these [is] charity.
Hugs and prayers. Jesus does love her, and though she's had an injury, I don't think she's forgotten that. I'm choosing to believe that, anyway. xxxooo
"For I know the plans I have for you...." Holding strong to his promise but crying at the same time for our "human" loss. She will sing with words again. God is just waiting for his perfect time. Much love!
