21 Days of Gratitude: Day 3 - My Sweet Girl

Oh Sweet P. My sweet girl. My sweet firstborn. I am so thankful for her and all that she is. She is independent, but loves her mama time. She adores her daddy and has finally started acknowledging the fact that she has a brother.

I wrote a post that has some of this in it (it's posting next week at some point), but it's appropriate for this post so I'm writing it again. 

Sweet P was what we like to call a surprise. I don't like to say she was an accident because God definitely had a plan for us when He placed Sweet P in our lives. Quite honestly, I cannot imagine what our lives would have become had I not become pregnant with her our first few months in Iowa. 

She is the first born grandchild on both sides and is SO loved. I pray that she feels that love and knows how important she is to so many people in her life. While she's a typical 3 year old (that girl is a sassafrass!), she is also loving, cautious, curious, thoughtful, compassionate and vibrant.

Her love for Jesus makes my heart soar and my sweet girl has such a passion for music. You can find her dancing, singing, humming or making up songs most of the day (usually at the top of her lungs while her brother is napping).

My dear Sweet P. She's our blue eyed babe (who I'm still in awe of!) and such a joy in our lives. And we have only God to thank for the blessing that she is. We love you sweet girl. 


For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. 
~Psalm 139:13-14
