I love you so much, my lovely daughter! And I love reading the things you are grateful for. It's like a window into your heart.
ReplyDeleteOh, and thanks for not mentioning that you only got that wedding quilt this year! Eleven years in the making. Oh brother!
I don't feel worthy of your list, but you encourage me too! You are such a positive influence in a world of Debbie Downers... you lift me up and remind me of what's truly important and how very blessed we are as daughters of the King!
