Every good and perfect gift is from above
James 1:17
I recently read a post on facebook that said, "My little girl is...." My mind automatically finished the sentence with: getting so big, sleeping in a big girl bed now, working on going on the potty. Then I finished reading the post and it said, "My little girl is moving into her own apartment." After reading it I nearly cried and thought, "NO I'm not ready for that." Then I reminded myself that my little girl has just turned two. There is no need to borrow tomorrows worries. Instead I am relishing the moments when she is so proud of her self for flipping or tells herself good job for peeing in the toilet. I often thank God for my precious little girl, but on her birthday I am especially reminded of the special gift he gave us. I pray that I am the mother that she needs and that I teach her to live a God honoring life. I'm sure it will be no time before I am helping her move into her own apartment and I want to take advantage of every moment until then!
