Idol Anniversary

One year ago American Idol changed a lot of things for our family, while some things look like they will never change.

Rewind....January 26, 2011
I will keep this brief (for once) because you see I have a daughter healing from a brain injury who is a bit excited today and I want to share that excitement with her. But I needed to take some time to acknowledge that prayer works.  If you look around you, it’s plain to see that good things happen when voices gather together for a common cause.  They can even create….Magic.  So when thousands of people are wishing GOOD into existence, you can bet it can move mountains.  Sometimes that magic is a whisper, Sometimes it’s a shout And sometimes... It’s a song.

  Today…So, as many of you know, it was one year ago today that the episode of American Idol aired including Chris Medina’s audition for season 10.  When I reflect back on that night a year ago it was as surreal as it was unexpected. (To read the entire blog, please visit www.forjuliana.org)
