3 Million Hits!

Today, we hit the 3,000,000 mark. We continue to be amazed by how God is using our story and that anyone, much less tens of thousands, would be this interested in our lives. Thank you, as always, for helping to make this journey what it is.

And, maybe even more amazing...Anne, the person who was the 3 Millionth hit, actually took a picture of her computer screen and sent it to me.


How cool is that?

    Just gotta add 'cause I didn't yesterday that I LOVE LOVE LOVE the pictures of Tricia feeding Gwyneth. Glad to see Gwyn enjoying her many new outfits :-)

  19. What a mighty God we serve who is using your open and honest heart to increase awareness and therefore cure for CF and organ donation. Also, to turn their heart toward Jesus! Tenille Rauls

  24. I just found your blog today through another's, and I wanted to say that you truly do have an incredible and amazing family story to share. Your family is just beautiful, and what a blessing it is to have both of your girls doing well. May God continue to bless you 3, and I look forward to hearing about the exciting things that await you all! ......A reader in Ohio

  25. This may be a stupid question, but does your total include people like me who subscribe through a blog reader (like bloglines)?

  26. I think Anne deserves a prize!

    ReplyDelete
  27. so cool Nate!

    btw I signed our state donor registry the other night! All because of this blog and Tricia's story! way to go!

    ReplyDelete
  28. Way cool move Anne! When I first saw the picture, I was wondering how Nate captured that. I had visions of him sitting on the edge of his seat with his computer in front of him pushing the refresh button over and over - like when you hit redial over and over to win a radio station contest!!! I especially like the picture of Tricia right next to the 3,000,000. It looks like it was like that on purpose!

  29. pretty cool. like that the 3 mill. pic shows tricia's beautiful face. how perfect is that?!

    ReplyDelete
  30. Very Cool! So much to go through and Tricia still has such a beautiful smile. I cannot wait to see all of you home together.

    God is GOOD!

  38. I am sure you have considered this already since you are a master blogger :) but why not consider running ads since you have so many hits you could make some serious money to help off set all of your time out of work and to raise money for CF? I dont think anyone here would judge you for doing that I would still support you and Trish. One of my co workers makes a lot of money and he does not have nearly the hits you have. Anyway I know you have thought of this I just wanted to give you my 2Cents which I know you dont need! :) Glad to hear all is well in your world.

    ReplyDelete
  39. Lots of cool updates! I especially think the CF connection thing is interesting. There's so many times people are connected by a common thread, but they just don't know it.

    ReplyDelete
  40. Aww, that is so sweet! Congratulations!! I'd imagine your heart is just full of all the good thoughts and prayers coming your way. I remember feeling that way many times myself, but, of course, on a slightly smaller scale.

    ReplyDelete
  41. Ha Ha!! That ROCKS!! Anne that was so cool of you to take a pic!!

    ReplyDelete
  42. WOW! I just looked at it and you've already hit 3,030,000-some hits. 30,000 hits in one day. You are reaching so many people and it's all in God's plan to send your story far and wide.

  43. Praising Him for how you have allowed God to use your lives to bless and educate so many.

  44. Anne, you are so smart! I wish I could think of this stuff.

  46. That is cool! So is this- I teach remedial reading, and shared your blog address with my students as an option to do some reading during their computer lab time. I was amazed how many of them were glued to the screen! So how's that for you- improving the reading skills of rural North Carolinians, nice.

  47. Holy cow - beyond cool! So glad that you are back! So glad to hear your girls are on their roads to heading home soon!!! Keep up the great work!
