“I am resolved to be a good mother to my children, to pray for them, to set them good examples, to give them good advice, to be careful both of their souls and bodies, to watch over their tender minds; to carefully root out the first appearing and buddings of vice, and to instill piety, virtue and true religion into them.“

Happy Birthday...

She is her Daddy's "little package" all grown up, well almost.  She is a delightful young woman, with a great sense of humor.  She has depths to her that people don't notice right away.  She is a hard worker - and is often Tim's right hand 'man'!  

She is a blessing to me.  She is a great cook, baker, iced coffee maker.  She is a favorite with her siblings and with her niece.

God gave us such a gift when He made her!  We are so thankful!  And thankful that she trusts not only her Daddy, but her Heavenly Father!

Happy Birthday, my precious daughter.  You grow more dear to me as the years go by...
