25 Pun Salute to Emily
Happy 25th Birthday to my Punny and random girl! I kept debating what to say or do for your “card” this year and this is what you get: What goes up and never comes down? Your age! If you want a Cinderella birthday party I can invite all your friends over to clean up for…
Clayton at 21~
Dear Clayton, You are officially an adult in the eyes of the law. I think about what I hope for you as you finish college and become a independent and godly man. You are more amazing than you know. That is partly due to your own choices, partly due to your heritage and all a…
My Spiritual Birthday
I grew up in a home of Christ Followers and went to church every Sunday. We had family devotions at dinner and went to summer camp at Forest Home as a family. My church family became a place of relatives, the blood ones all lived far away, full of “aunts, uncles, cousins, grandparents, etc”. So…
Happy Birthday to Clayton #20!

Happy Birthday Emily
My sweet girl is celebrating her last birthday as a single woman! I love how much you have changed my life for the better. I look forward to celebrating many more with you! I love you!
Emily is 21!
Where does the time go? You are a full grown woman and I am not sure how that happened!? A Letter to my 21 year old daughter: Today you are 21 years old. Birthdays mean something different to parents than they do to kids. To us, we cannot help but think about the day our…
