our girls

i am blessed, and i am thankful. scott and i truly have two beautiful girls. some days i admit are crazier than others, some days there are tears, some days there are frustrations, but through it all i can say that i find much joy in this little family of mine. i have no idea how tomorrow will turn out, i don't know if they will love the Lord, i don't know what paths they will choose, and sometimes i find it overwhelming to think beyond this day. i can't imagine our life without them, my heart pounds for them. truly they are a gift, i wonder if they will ever know how important they are to scott and i. if they will ever understand that every decision we make is with them in mind. if they will know just how much we love them...maybe they don't need to know such things. if i could share my heart with them...

i pray that they would care for each other well. that they would encourage one another and uplift each other in their strengths. that they would take joy in each others accomplishments and run to each other in times of need. that they would pray for each other and have much respect for one another.

i pray that they would find men of great integrity and beauty. that they would be treated with honor that they would be cherished. that they would be in love, deep love that would see them through time. that they would find men like their daddy.

i pray that they would set their sights high and never be afraid to try anything. that they would dream big dreams and have hearts full of passion. that they would know that as a family we stand beside them and will catch them if they slip.

i pray that they would know they are children of God, that they are beautiful and that they are free.

this is my prayer for the girls we have been blessed with.
