My Daughter & I {Then & Now}

It's been a lovely, full day of celebrating and remembering how our country began.  Along with that remembrance came thoughts of how this sweet little girl looked last year...fauxhawk and all...  ;-)

 And here she is this year...

 How grateful I am for her!  I do not take for granted all the ways she has grown and changed this year, developing just like God intends for her to do!

And now I am tired...and a comfy bed beckons...and the thought of tomorrow shines brightly.  A day with no scheduled obligations - hooray!  :)
