My sweet baby girl, born 18 years ago today, lies sleeping across the hotel room. We are in a lovely room at the Pere Marquette in New Orleans to celebrate. My heart is so full--with admiration for the young woman she has become; with heaviness as the summer races full throttle towards "M day" (moving day) to Ruston; with thankfulness for the deep abiding faith she has.
My prayer for today is to stay in the moment! Don't get hung up in little details that irritate or detract---focus on my sweet little family who love you and love each other!
