I still can not believe it has been 15 years since I gave birth to my youngest daughter, Bek. It just does not seem possible. It seems like just yesterday that D and I were bringing her home in her little pink, lacy dress and bonnet. She was a tiny little thing – all 6 lbs and 11 ounces of her.
Then, she grew…..
and grew….
and grew…
and now she’s a young lady…
Tomorrow, Bek enters her sophomore year of high school. My how time has flown! She is amazingly smart, witty and talented. She loves almost anything to do with music. She is heavily involved in all the bands at school. She plays the alto sax in their marching band and plays tenor sax in the symphonic and jazz band. Although the sax is her primary instrument, she can play many others (7, I think!) She is in many gifted and AP classes and is hopefully headed toward a great collegiate career. Above all, she loves the Lord and tries hard to put Him first in all that she does. We couldn’t be more proud of her!
HAPPY 15th BIRTHDAY, BEK! WE LOVE YOU!

Thanks for stopping over from SITS. We, too are fellow Georgians and my husband is a firefighter/EMT for Gwinnett. Missions is my passion, but my outlet has to be the church mission committee since the boy was born!
Your daughter is beautiful! It's hard to imagine that my toddler and baby boys will one day be fully grown.
p.s. Thanks so much for your comment on my blog!
