“Jesus said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. So you must go and make disciples of all nations.

GraCE
She’s lovely, feminine, beautifully simple, and perhaps the bravest person I know. She’s compassionate towards others and fiercely protective of her loved ones. She has a real heart for the homeless. She ALWAYS, ALWAYS thinks about her sister. She is generous and kind-hearted with an innocent spirit.

She never goes too far without her Greenie. She loves being a girlie girl. She’s a ray of sunshine and brings joy to our world. She often reminds me to stop and smell the roses.
What would we do without Gracie? She is so precious to our family!
Normally, I wouldn’t do a post about being 5.5 but the girls just seem to be growing up so fast. Morgan and I have recently realized, we are, in fact, experiencing the last of the littles. We’ve heard this happens around this age. The little in your daughter starts slipping away and all of a sudden one day, you realize, she’s become a young lady.
It’s so true… I can hardly believe how quickly time passes. So today, in an effort to capture a “time capsule-like moment” I’m choosing to stop* recognize* be thankful* be intentional* and celebrate* the beautiful gift of this day!!
We love you , girls! We’re so proud of the young ladies you’re becoming.
You’ll always be 5.5 in our hearts…
(especially in daddy’s heart!)
To celebrate, the girls indulged in a sprinkled donut this morning.
Cheers to being 5.5 and being little, for just a little while longer!
