We celebrated my girl's 14th birthday this past weekend. She is a grace-gift... the young lady that she has grown up to become is definitely not because of who we are as parents... it is because of who our God is! All thanks and glory be to our Heavenly Father!

Speaking of my girl, the teacher comment on her report card made my heart smile. She said:
{My girl} has demonstrated great interest in social justice issues. Many people recognize when there is an injustice. Few people are willing to speak out and advocate for change. {My girl} is one of the few.That, my friends, is my girl!!! :-) I am thankful for the place in her heart for people who are marginalized... it is truly a God-given heart of compassion... a grace-gift!

ReplyDeleteI’m visiting from Ann’s again today. I know it’s Wednesday – but there are so many!!
ReplyDeleteI always pick a favorite - and my favorite of yours today was ~ Internet connection... we take it for granted sometimes. (and boy do we ever – so many of us so linked – I worry sometimes what if…)
God Bless you and all of yours this day.
