Seattle Mom Robyn Rosenberger is using Heart, Passion and Purpose to turn children suffering from illness and disability around the world into tiny super heroes. "I want the world to know we think of kids with illness as different. Truth is, they are extraordinary because they overcome things we can't imagine and they do it with a smile," Rosenberger told ABC News.

After a move from St. Louis to Seattle, Robyn renewed her interest and passion for sewing. She sewed a super hero cape for her 2 year old nephew. She had also been following a blog of a brave little girl named Brenna who was born with a rare skin disease. Rosenburger decided that Brenna needed a cape too. So she sewed a special cape for Brenna with a big “B” on the back and “Super Brenna” was born. Needless to say, Brenna loved the cape.

Robyn tells ABC News, that she “...quickly realized there were other kids out there who actually were tiny superheroes."

After featuring “Super Brenna's” cape on her Blog, Rosenberger received dozens of requests for other tiny super heroes who needed a cape.

In six months, she's sent 700 personalized capes to sick children in 45 states and 11 countries. Each cape comes with a handwritten message.

Rosenberger now gets 10 to 20 requests a day. She quit her job and has pulled friends in to help.

“We are building a Tiny Superhero squad. Together these kids can make a difference. We cross-reference their stories," she said. "Then, by sharing them we can help raise awareness. Raising awareness brings funding, funding leads to more research, and research brings cures.”

Rosenberger has mailed capes to children affected by Oklahoma's recent tornadoes.

She hopes to establish contacts with children's hospitals and ultimately have a Tiny Superheroes center “that takes our relationship with the children outside the virtual world.” (Source: ABC News for GMA on Yahoo.)

Robyn Rosenberger used her heart in finding a way to turn her passion for sewing into an incredibly worthy cause helping young children suffering from rare and life threatening illnesses find courage and comfort as tiny super heroes. In a nutshell, Robyn found her life purpose through her heart, passion for sewing and imagination in wanting to help a brave young girl named Brenna become Super Brenna and it snowballed from there to create hundreds of tiny super heroes.

Rosenberger says, “If you would have told me six months ago that this would be my life, I would have paid a million dollars to make this my life, but I wouldn't believe you,”
