awe thats so cute but what happened to her. and what is the see picture about?

[BostonChick06]

@jamfilledcrackers She was accidentally struck by an SUV in the family's driveway. What makes the story all the more tragic is that it was her brother who backed over her.

The SEE pictures were pictures that Maria drew the day of the accident. Her dad kept asking God to show him that all of this heartache would be okay and then he discovered the drawings made by Maria. She had written "see" on it and he took it as a sign that it was "see daddy, I'm okay".

@jamfilledcrackers Also, the petal had six flowers (there are six children in the family). And only 1 was colored in....just a little symbolic. Like I said she drew this the day of the accident.

@BostonChick06 just saw the whole family in concert..which was amazing..They said the blue petal on the flower is her favorite color & the one she always colors first. He sang this song at the concert-not a dry eye in the place. God has helped and healed this whole family and their witness is even stronger then before. I am sure the pain will never go away but they remind themselves every day that they will see her in heave some day.

She is so cute! Me and my husband lost our daughter a month after Maria had pass away. And I've been listening to Steven's song "With Hope" every since she pass. I also play it at her funeral and it was the most perfect song for her. And now listening to this song, just bring back the good memories to the time that I had my daughter. She would of been 2.

I'm sitting here crying over this song. Every time I hear it come on the radio I cry. Prayers for the Chapman family.

I lost my beautiful son to Ritalin at age 22. He was diagnosed at age 12 with ADD and all he wanted was to be normal and to excell in this world. Doctors never warned us how addictive this drug is, and now with brain imaging they have found it damages the brain in the area where rationale judgement is made. I know Curtis has cried a million tears, it is uncontrollable at times. This loss really test your faith, but Griefshare helped us an it is available worldwide. Google it. God bless.

God picked one of the petals. SEE?

I do see.

I've been so sad, missing my brother today. He died in April so this month is always hard... and there were six members in my family and he was the petal God picked first. I do see. How great is our God! I'm going to see my brother again some day and he's gonna show me around paradise, he's gonna lead me to Jesus! My deliverer!!

Could you imagine how you'd feel if you ran over your little sister. I would kill myself.
