My Oldest Daughter

She is an awesome woman. Not because she is my daughter. Not because of what she does or what she looks like, but because of her heart. She is a strong woman of God. I have watched her battle a battle that I would never have wanted to see her go through, and one that I could not help her with. I have watched her be as weary as she has ever been, yet she did not sway from her obedience to God. She has gone through it with grace, character, and with God at her side. She is honoring and obeying God and I am so very proud of her. She can truly say with all humility that she gave her all to try to win this battle. Sadly, it was not to be and her family will not be the same because of it. I believe, that with her help, her family will come out of this strong and loving and will survive in spite of their hurt. She can do anything with God. I admire her so much. She is a better person than I could ever be and I aspire to be more like her. I love this child with all my heart.

Thanks Mom. That made me all emotional. I just wish it could have had a different outcome.
Love you.
