Bonnie Bruno, writer and photographer, has recently completed an uplifting and hope-filled book, When God Steps In: Stories of Everyday Grace (Standard Publishing, 2007).
A story about Avery is included, called “Lesson of the Button,” and for the quote at its beginning, Bonnie chose one that’s new to me, that I love: “Faith makes all things possible. Love makes all things easy.” (Dwight L. Moody)
As you might guess from the book’s title, it’s a collection of fifty stories of ordinary, everyday experiences of the sublime. My favorite is “A Different Answer,” submitted by Carrie Paup, which is a loving tribute to her beautiful daughter Macey.
I have one copy of this book that I’d like to share; leave your name in the comments if you’re interested!
Jennifer,
Welcome home! And the book sounds lovely. Toss my name in the hat…
Thank you for the welcome-home! I have a lot to catch up on! You’re name’s in the hat…
That looks like a very interesting book!
Looks like a wonderful book!
Wonderful! Add my name.
Oh, yes please!
I just read Your article in Baby Talk. Loved it. I had to come and read more. Funny thing is I have been here before and sort of know you from Downsyn. A very small world in a very good way:)
I too would like to be added to the list
oops I forgot to correct my website. Here it is…

Hi Kim! Good to see you, I’ll add you to my blogroll!
Glad you’re back! And you know I’m in…
Me, too! Did I mention how much I missed you while you were gone? Seriously. I felt like a kid whose best friend had moved away; I kept walking past your “house” hoping you’d show up…
Oh Niksmom, that’s one of the nicest things anyone has ever said to me. You can stop by my house any time; the door is always open!
count me in please!
As a new father (two weeks) of a beautiful little boy with DS, this book looks like a must read to take a breath every now and again.
I’d love to see it.
Ok, can I take my name off the list and add Tom’s for a second chance? Seriously.
I think all new dads deserve special honors!
Thanks, “Niksmom,” I truly appreciate it. On my blog I’ve linked to some of the fathers I’ve been able to find on the web. There aren’t as many as I would have thought. If anyone knows of more, please let me know (not that I don’t enjoy reading what Mom’s have to say, but, you know… )
Thanks, Tom
