HAPPY 20TH BIRTHDAY, SARAH!

My sweet niece peep Sarah, one of my most favorite people on the planet and maybe in the entire universe, left her teenage years behind on July 13 and celebrated this milestone with cousins at Six Flags in Kentucky and then again this evening with pineapple upside down cake, ice cream, punch and assorted aunts, uncles, cousins, sister and parents who all love her dearly. Happy 20th, Sarah Catherine! Love you always.

Psalm 37

3Trust in the Lord and do good;

dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture.

4Take delight in the Lord,

and he will give you the desires of your heart.

5Commit your way to the Lord;

trust in him and he will do this:

6He will make your righteous reward shine like the dawn,

your vindication like the noonday sun.

Write Your Story On My Heart

Tonight was granddaughter Shelby’s last chorus concert at Avery Trace Middle School. 8th grade is winding down for her. She’ll be moving on to high school next year. Hard to believe! Where has the time gone?

They performed a lot of modern songs that involved an array of emotions, but mostly it was all about friendship, changes and saying goodbye. Their last song was Journey’s Don’t Stop Believing.

Shelby is part of a small group of 8th graders who took part in chorus all four years of middle school. I think she plans on being in chorus in high school. I hope so. She has an awesome voice.

We’ve enjoyed watching you in all your chorus concerts, Shelby.  Looking forward to your next chapter as I continue to write your story on my heart. Love you and proud of you!
