Turning Four

Brenna

                                             

 

It happened.  Another birthday has come and gone.  I guess I should be glad it wasn't mine (yet).  I still have a few months before I get a year closer to the big 4-0.  Brenna's birthday was Saturday.  It seems like yesterday when I told Ashley it was time to go the hospital, and he wasn't sure he believed me.  One week early, my baby girl arrived with loud screams.  Even my doctor informed Brenna that it was her choice to arrive early, not the doctor.  Sometimes, when Brenna is upset (yea, it happens every once in a while) she can sound just like the day she was born.  Where does the time go?  She's not a baby anymore, but she'll always be my baby.  Brenna is full of life

and has great personality. 

I can't wait to see what her future holds.  I hope she walks in faith, loves fully, and experiences all of life.  I hope she learns to build character (even when she doesn't want to).  May she have grace,

strength,

courage,

 

and love

as she walks in this world. 

Oh, she'll also need patience. 

Here is one of my favorite pictures.  It is of two of the most important ladies in my life, my GG and my daughter.  I'm a lucky person.
