Welcome the Newest Member of the Making Memories Family

by Tammy L. Adams

A ray of sunshine beamed from heaven into the lives of Anna and Sammie Orr with the arrival of their daughter, Brooklyn Hope. This little one slid down a sunbeam and into the loving arms of her parents on April 2, 2007 at 1:25 a.m.  She is a 6 lb, 14 oz, 19" bundle of joy and the binding that bonds this blended family.

On April 28, 2006, with the blessing of Anna's daughters, Bayleigh and Jaylynn, Sam and Anna vowed their love for one another amidst the gentle cadence of the ocean's waves, in a private ceremony witnessed by God and family.

Their joy is now complete with the special addition to their happy home. Just ask her older sisters what they think of their newest sibling and you will get an answer in smiles from ear to ear, as the "little mothers" happily cuddle their tiny charge.

As the co-founder and Wish Director of Making Memories Breast Cancer Foundation, Anna has been Granting Wishes and Fulfilling Dreams of terminally ill breast cancer patients since 1998. The blessing of her cherished family has finally brought fulfillment to her own heartfelt wishes and dreams.
