16 year old daughters

I love this girl very much. She was a blessing from the very first day I met her and continues to be every day.   Just not sure why she thinks she looks so bad, is it adolescence? Do all teenage girls think they are not pretty enough? I try to tell her as often … [Read more…]

A whole new world

Where did the time go?

Mackenzie was holding my camera and wanted to take a picture. This is the outcome of that time. I sadly look at this photo and have to ask myself where the time went. Those are not the feet of my sweet 4 year old Mackenzie. Those are not the feet of my sweet 8 year … [Read more…]

Mackenzie dressed for success

On Sunday Mackenzie helped out at Church by doing a skit for the younger kids. She was one of a few people who helped. But she gave it her all and did the best job she could. This is how adorable she looked before she went.
