Women around the world feel as though they’re lifelong friends with Angie Smith—and most of them have never met her in person. They’ve come to know Angie through her transparent, warm, witty blog Bring The Rain. It began as the story of her fourth daughter’s brief life and became an opportunity to combine Angie’s two greatest passions: helping to heal people’s hearts and writing. The wife of Todd Smith (lead singer of hit Christian contemporary group Selah), Angie co-wrote the song “I Will Carry You” (found on Selah’s CD You Deliver Me) and authored a book by the same name. Angie, Todd, and their daughters live in Tennessee.

Todd and I have been married for 10 years, and have four daughters here on earth. Their names are Abby (8), Ellie (8), Kate (5), and Charlotte (1). On April 7th, 2008 we met our daughter Audrey and a few hours later she went to be with the Lord. We knew from fairly early in the pregnancy that she wouldn’t survive, but wanted to have as much time with her as we could have. This blog was started shortly after her diagnosis, and she will always be the inspiration behind anything good that comes from my writing. If you want to read more about her, feel free to click on the “start from the beginning” button.

Please accept my gratitude for reading about my daughter, for your prayers, and your caring for my family.

With love,

Angie
