And just like that, sixteen years have flown by with this child. She is sweet, kind, funny, gracious and unselfish. Her inward beauty shines outward and I often wonder if she can see it too? I would love to know her thoughts when she glances in the mirror. Does she catch the light of her Savior in her eyes or the peace that rests on her shoulders? Does she hear the pure joy in her laughter or notice the smile she brings to others faces? Can she take in the excitement her younger sister tries to contain when they get to hang out? Goodness, this girl amazes me!

Happy Birthday, Abbey Grace!

I love you!
