As I put the finishing touches on my makeup and outfit the next evening, a burst of confi-dence and happiness filled my heart.I truly looked stunning in my lavender Adrianna Papell Lace Fit and Flare dress. My silver, dangly teardrop earrings went with my outfit perfectly. My brunette chest length hair had been transformed and shaped into long ringlets. For the first time in a long time, I truly felt beaut- iful. As I made my way downstairs, I realized something. Even though I had lost my legs, the new beginning that God had given me was the one that I had truly needed and so much better than the one I had anticipated.
