Our Lovely Daughter

So today we are celebrating our first birthday of the month.  Twelve years ago today, we welcomed our first daughter into our family.  She was my easiest labor and delivery.  I basically rocked her into the world in a rocking chair.  She has been the joy of my life.  

She came into this world following her three brothers.  Following those brothers is exactly what she has not been satisfied to do.  Early on she decided that anything her brothers did, She could do better.  With homeschooling, she was constantly striving to move ahead.  She approached school with a thirst for learning.  

Her brothers got involved in Scouts, which meant she spent lots and lots of time around boys.  Considering both her dad and I were leaders for our pack and then troop, she attended numerous scout meetings.  She could hold her own around boys.  Nothing really scared her.  

She has an tremendous amount of determination.  At the same time, she shows her love for her family.  She thinks the world of her brothers.  Yet she also does not take anything from them.  

She is the joy of my world.  She is my little princess.  I love her dearly.  We were truly blessed the day she joined our family.
