God sent you into the world and we named you Jacqueline (Jackie).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You were born with a hole between the chambers of your heart, which would require surgery at age two. You also needed immediate surgery for a hernia. The corrective surgery for the hernia went well and the hole between the chambers of you heart grew closed on its own right before the two-year mark. God really had granted me what I asked of Him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I prayed a lot during your teens and God continued to grant me what I asked of Him. In your twenties I prayed you would stay strong after the loss of your first born, Niccolo, and that you wouldn\u2019t give up on having more children. Along came Alyssa, Alana, and Caramia. I knew then that you were praying along with me and that once again God had really granted us what we had asked of Him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jackie, you\u2019re beautiful inside and out. You\u2019re an amazing daughter, great wife, incredible mother, awesome friend and so much more. I will never be able to thank God enough for granting me exactly what I asked for.
