Erka Bogan!

Congratulations Erika, we are so happy for you and so very proud!

Many thanks for all the prayers and support that she received from everyone. I was so excited to learn Saturday night that Erika won and will represent North Carolina at the Miss Wheelchair America pageant later this summer.  It’s so exciting and I am so honored to share in Erika’s joy and journey.

You are in for a treat as Erika will be blogging for the Gratitude Circle very soon.  You will surely be inspired by her story!

In gratitude,

Oh and take a look at Erika’s wrist – she wore the Gratitude Bracelet as her good luck charm and hasn’t taken it off since!
