A Small Miracle

A really beautiful thing happened in the life of one of the Laura girls, Teara. Both her mother and father died when she was young, leaving her with the street name but no other part of her relative’s address. Teara was raised by the Sister. Just this past month, years after her parents had passed away, Teara was listening to the radio when someone called-in and identified their address. Miraculously, Teara recognized the street name and learned the town in which it was located. After so many years, she was reunited with her father’s family! The family had long ago given up looking for Teara, believing she was dead. But they still had pictures of Teara from when she was just a baby (marking the first time that that Teara got to see them herself). It was so wonderful to hear Teara’s story, especially in the light of the difficulties that many of the Laura girls have experienced in their lives.
