My sweet girl is 10! TEN years old! That's a decade, ya know? That's just 3 shy of being a teenager. WHERE has the time gone? I know that it's been 10 years, but really......I can remember her birth and her 1st birthday...and the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th.....like they were just yesterday! In just 8 years, she'll be old enough to walk out the door & go marry some yucky boy if she wants to! Eeeekkkk!!!!!
Heavenly Father, Thank you for the gift that is my daughter. You knew her before I did. You knit her together so tenderly in my womb. You touched her with your hands before I did. You had a vested interest in her eternal life before I ever layed eyes on her. You gave her life, allowed her to take her first breath, and stand at her side, day in & day out. Thank you for being the life-giver for my daughter. Thank you for giving her to me, loaning her out for her time here on earth. Thank you for choosing me to be her mother. I have learned much through this precious vessel of your Spirit and am honored that you chose me to be the one to raise her. THank you, Jesus. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteJust wait until she is 30 and you will really ask where the years have gone. I still consider her Mommy my baby girl, too. So baby girl, you are doing a great job of being a good steward of this child and the 4 others that the Father has put in your care. Thanks for taking good care of my grandchildren. I love you very much. Mama
