I was going through some pics today of my older girls, and just wanted to post these couple of pics. I can not believe how much they have grown up even over the last year. Olivia, a junior and Caroline in 8th grade. Seems like it wasn't that long ago that we were approaching the "preteen" years and all of the stuff that goes along with it like hormones, growth spurts, junior misses sizes instead of kid's sizes, skin products, hair products, yes even feminine products (yes I said it) and boys, (not too much yet, thank goodness). The biggest and most important growth however that has been such a joy to watch bloom has been their spiritual walk with the Lord and what He continues to teach them and show them as they mature into these amazing and beautiful young ladies. The biggest things the Lord is teaching ME as I watch them grow, are to love, teach and model, but then to open my hands to Him that made them and saved them, and trust that HE will teach them to fly with the wings He has given them! And to keep praying for the Holy Spirit to guide and protect them on this journey of being a Christ following teenager in a sometimes hard and crazy world! I love my girls and I am so proud of them!
