Today is a very special day because it’s the day that my favorite woman in the entire world was born! No one has a heart quite like hers and I am so grateful that the Lord chose her to be my Momma. She’s the kindest, most genuine, most incredible woman and I constantly find myself striving to be more like her.

She’s the source of so much laughter, the encouragement that’s picked up the broken pieces of my heart more times than I could count, the reassurance I’ve needed when I’ve doubted myself, the voice of reason that’s always helped me find direction, and the steady hand that’s gently led me to Jesus time after time after time.

Last night, we had our family over to celebrate her birthday and I was so glad the rain held off long enough to enjoy dinner outside. She’s one of my life’s greatest treasures.
