Then and now

Today

 

our first born

 

our oldest daughter

 

turns

 

23!

 

I remember when I held her tiny form for the first time; my life changed forever.

It's a funny thing - THEN and NOW.

THEN - she arrived 1 month early.  Surprise! 

NOW - she is still full of surprises.  ;-)

 

THEN - she was little, but a fighter. 

NOW - she is little, but a fighter.

 

THEN - Our prayer for her {as a preemie} was that she would grow in physical strength, and seek hard after the Lord, and follow His leading with a whole heart.

NOW - Our prayer for her {as a grown, married woman} is that she would grow is spiritual strength, and seek hard after the Lord, and follow His leading with a whole heart.

 

Funny how some things never change.

 

Happy Birthday, Sarah!

How we love you and are so thankful that the Lord gave us YOU!
