My Baby’s Sixteen

P0001753Hard to believe.  Just yesterday she arrived…a millennium baby.  Now, she’s driving herself to school, dance and to see friends.  Ok…this is the 18th and her birthday is on Sunday…so I have three more days…but the reality hits all the same.  Once she was needing me to care for her every need…now she’s got it.   She’s sweet 16.

 

Brynn and I have always been close.  I’m close with all three of my daughters, but perhaps as the baby…well, let’s just say that I was the one who could calm her best with a hug and a prayer.  Our nighttimes always had a sweet prayer before she’d sing with Mom.  Life changes…though I still get a sweet goodnight and a kiss.

Brynn is an amazing young lady, just like her big sisters.   She has an amazing future.  She’s always loved the Lord and singing her praises to God.  I can’t wait to see what transpires in life for her.  I get to keep her around for two more years, and I am so excited for those days.

 

They will move too fast; all of my days move too fast now.  As one of my songs said, “I’m aging faster now.”  But every day with my daughter Brynn is a good day.

 

I love you sweetheart.  Have a very happy birthday!!
