MORE BEAUTIFUL YOU

This is a letter of sorts to these BEAUTIFUL GIRLS in my life.....

SARAH ~ YOUR BEAUTY RADIATES FROM WITHIN. YOU HAVE A HEART THAT IS TRULY FULL OF LOVE AND JOY. AS YOU COME UP ON THE TEEN YEARS (yikes, I said it), MY PRAYER FOR YOU IS THAT YOU REMEMBER GOD CREATED YOU IN HIS IMAGE. EVERYTHING ABOUT YOU IS PERFECT. NO MATTER WHAT THE WORLD SAYS ABOUT YOU, TO YOU, HOLD TIGHTLY TO GOD'S PROMISES THAT HE LOVES YOU JUST THE WAY YOU ARE! YOU ARE A BEAUTIFUL YOUNG LADY BOTH INSIDE AND OUT. IT IS TRULY A BLESSING TO BE YOUR AUNT!

AMANDA ~ MY DAUGHTER. MY BABY. MY OFFSPRING. A PIECE OF ME. GOD FASHIONED YOUR VERY BEING EVEN BEFORE YOU WERE IN MY WOMB. HE KNEW EXACTLY HOW HE WAS GOING TO CREATE YOU, AND WHAT A MASTERPIECE HE CREATED WHEN HE CREATED YOU! MY LITTLE "TWEENY-BOPPER" TRYING TO BECOME YOUR OWN PERSON - "MOM, DOES MY HAIR LOOK RIGHT?" "MOM, CAN I PLEASE WEAR THIS SAME OUTFIT AGAIN (and again, and again)".....AMANDA, MY GIRL, YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL JUST THE WAY YOU ARE! YOU ARE THE DAUGHTER OF THE KING, AND GOD IS PLEASED WITH HIS CREATION - YOU! THE WORLD WILL BE CRUEL, MEAN, AND HATEFUL, YES, BUT FALL INTO GOD'S ARMS AS YOUR PROTECTOR, AND LET HIM LEAD YOU, AND LET HIM USE ME AS A TOOL TO HELP GUIDE YOU THOUGH THIS PATH CALLED LIFE.

EVELYN ~ SUCH A SWEET LITTLE GIRL, LOOKING LIKE YOUR MAMA A LITTLE MORE EACH DAY. YOU MAKE ME LAUGH WITH YOU SILLINESS, AND MAKE MY HEART MELT WITH YOUR LOVING KINDNESS. A CREATION OF GOD, GOD'S LITTLE LAMB. YOU BRING SUCH JOY TO MY HEART. EVERYTHING ABOUT YOU IS BEAUTIFUL - HAZEL EYES, SUN-BLEACHED HAIR, CUTE SMILE. YOU LOVE EVERYONE, AND ESPECIALLY YOUR JESUS! I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE YOU BLOSSOM INTO A YOUNG LADY AND THE PLANS GOD HAS FOR YOUR LIFE!

LIZZIE ~ YOUR EYES TELL A STORY. YOUR HEART SINGS A SONG. YOU WORDS SPEAK OF LOVE. YOUR HUG IS SUCH A WARM EMBRACE. DEFINITELY A GIRLY-GIRL, FULL OF LAUGHTER, FULL OF SPUNK. YOU CRACK ME UP THE TIMES I HAVE TAKEN YOU TO YOUR APPTS, AND YOU PLAY YOUR "HIDE & SEEK". I CAN SEE THE FINGERPRINTS OF GOD ALL OVER YOU; AND WHAT A MASTERPIECE HE CREATED! NEVER LET THE WORLD TELL YOU YOU AREN'T PRETTY ENOUGH, BECAUSE GOD ONLY CREATES THE MOST BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE! A PRINCESS, DAUGHTER OF THE KING.


FAITH ~ MANY, MANY MILES SEPARATE US PHYSICALLY, BUT LOVE KEEPS US CLOSE TOGETHER! I CAN ONLY IMAGINE WHAT WAS GOING THROUGH GOD'S THOUGHTS WHEN HE CREATED YOU - CURLY RED HAIR, FAIR COMPLEXION, HUGE LOVING HEART, SPUNKY SIDE, AND SINGER OF PRAISE SONGS (TOP OF YOUR LUNGS) TO JESUS. YOU ARE HIS MASTERPIECE, CREATED IN HIS IMAGE. AS YOU GROW UP IN THIS WORLD, REMEMBER, WE ARE NOT OF THIS WORLD, WE BELONG TO JESUS, AND NO MATTER WHAT, YOU ARE SO BEAUTIFUL IN GOD'S EYES, AND IN MY EYES, TOO.

ALANNAH ~ THE NEW ONE-YEAR-OLD! YOU ARE A SWEETIE. A CUTE SMILE, A TINY GIGGLE - YET A HUGE VOICE!, AND VERY PLAYFUL! YOU ARE A BLESSING FROM ABOVE, SENT TO US FROM GOD. HE KNOWS EVERY HAIR ON YOUR HEAD (OR SHALL I SAY, THE ONES STARTING TO GROW :) ), AND EVERY FIBER OF YOUR BEING. YOU ARE HIS CREATION! I ENJOY WATCHING YOU LEARN NEW THINGS, AND CAN'T WAIT TO HEAR YOUR FIRST "REAL" WORD. YOU HOLD YOUR OWN, AND I PRAY AS YOU GROW, YOU WILL HOLD FIRM ON THE PROMISES OF GOD!


SUCH SWEET GIRLS MY LIFE HAS BEEN BLESSED WITH. BEING AN AUNT IS AN AMAZING GIFT GOD HAS GIVEN ME. I CHERISH EVERY MOMENT SPENT WITH THESE PRECIOUS NIECES OF MINE. GIRLS, AS YOU GROW MY PRAYER FOR YOU IS THAT YOU REMEMBER GOD CREATED YOU AND THAT THERE WILL NEVER BE A MORE BEAUTIFUL YOU.
I LOVE YOU ALL! HERE IS A SONG THAT I HEARD AND IT WAS VERY BEFITTING FOR THE GIRLS IN MY LIFE!
