Yes, we have made it 19 years. Nineteen years of God's grace, empowering and goodness. One aspect of that 19 years of goodness is the gift of 4 children. The oldest has just graduated high school and turned 18. She has been my right arm for many years now. I could not be more blessed than I am to have a daughter who truly loves God with all her heart,mind and body. And although I had a very uncharacteristic moment of near hysteria last night at 1 a.m. when sitting at the steak and shake drive through waiting for our happy birthday shakes( because it was now officially June 10th and her 18th birthday) I looked over at her thinking this when it hit me, OH My, She is EIGHTEEN! SHE IS AN ADULT! This is it. She is grown. She can leave any time. I am not afraid to let her go into whatever God has for because I know she desires to live her life serving her Savior. To walk holy and blameless before her God. Thank you Damaris for honoring your parents with your life. I am proud(in a good way) of you and blessed to call you my daughter and friend. I love you.
