Thankful Thursday - My Princess

It's hard to believe that it was eight years ago, this Saturday, that my life completely and totally changed...never to be the same again...

On January 19, 2000  the Lord "graced" me (her middle name) with the most precious gift of my first child...my beloved daughterI am so thankful for her!  For her beauty...her grace...her tender heart.  She is one of the most determined little souls I  have ever met, and is also extremely creative, intelligent, and generous

I thank God that He has called her name, called her out, and that she has surrendered to His love.  I can't wait to see what plans He has in store for her, as she continues to grow in His nurture and admonition.  She is my beautiful little girl...and I am in awe that God has granted me this most wonderful privilege of being her mother. 

Happy Birthday, Mama's Princess!!! I love you more than you will ever know!

What are you thankful for today?? Head on over to Iris' Sting My Heart blog and let us know!!

Dear Susanne,

Oh, your princess is just BEAUTIFUL. Happy Birthday to her.

I will keep you in prayer as you continue your church planting. This is such an awesome ministry!

I'll also pray for that rest and trust you are asking for.

Blessing to you for being such a faithful servant.

Happy TT to you!
