My Lucy

Lucy recently celebrated her second birthday. Today, she walked with her father to the fruit orchard to examine the trees development. Wearing a brown hooded jacket and pink pants waddling beside her father I became overwhelmed with pride and sadness. My little girl has grown faster than I realize. She is starting to speak in fragmented sentences. Names objects to her baby doll as they move around. Sings songs and paints scribble. Loves books and soft animals. No doubt she is very impressionable as mimics her mother and father. More than ever I treasure the importance of parenting and pray more fervently God is gracious for my failings. This child is the best part of me and I hope you enjoy her too.
