Jason posted a comment from his daughter in Out of the mouths of babes.
It made me think about things my own children said that were absolutely precious. Wait! they are no longer children, but grown, out, away, married, with masters degrees. Preaching, pastoring, managing, living apart.

We are born, we die. Dust to dust. We live for Him in between.

Bitsy, I regret to tell you this, but my 7 year old daughter has informed us that she will never leave the house, so I guess she’ll stay with us forever. Whew…
There ya go!
This is a great photo Bitsy. You are such a beautiful lady! Great looking boys too.
I’m all weepy about mine staring 8th here in a couple of weeks. I know it’s my job to prepare her to fly away, but it’s still a bittersweet prospect.
I cannot prepare for that day! Does it always come?
Yes! and it will be here before you know it so enjoy every cotton-pickin’ day God gives you! 😀
Kat! That’s my DIL Blythe in that pix! (I went back and added names)
I was ready for the boys to go to college when they went. Someday I need to write about how very glad I was that Brandon actually left when he did :O .. . . 😀 But the time was right. I knew they were well prepared and ready, and it’s a nice time in life to be alone with the Mr.
