Birthday Bumpkin



What a rare gift this girl is. Wise and brave; silly and full of life; complex and sweetly simple. Swift to forgive. She comforts like a mother hen; she humbles me; she brings great joy.

She shines light in dark corners.

And she's five now. On August 17th, she arose with a song that lasted for weeks.

Happy fifth birthday, Mildred Elise! May God help us raise you to love Him with all your heart, soul, and mind, and may we be always willing to the task.
