that girl

I used to watch a tv show when I was little 

starring Marlo Thomas

called That Girl. I couldn't now think of one 

single episode plot, but I can still hum

the theme song.

I'm weird that way.

Anyway,

I was thinking about our Erin & how proud we

are of her, and wanted to share a little about

THAT girl of ours.

 For someone who was diagnosed with
dyslexia in first grade, she is amazing.
There were years of academic struggle,
and social anxieties.
Looking at her today, you wouldn't believe it.

God has healed this little beauty in many
ways, and we couldn't be more proud.
She brought home a final report card
 of all A's & one B to end her freshman
year, but more importantly,
we've watched her daily grow into
a compassionate, Spirit-filled, and
very funny teenager who loves life.
God has also gifted her with a servant's
heart and a very discerning spirit.

I'll end w/ the lyrics of the 1st verse of that
quirky little  TV sitcom...
kind of reminds me of our girl!



Diamonds, Daisies, Snowflakes, 
That Girl 
Chestnuts, Rainbows, Springtime... 
Is That Girl 
She's tinsel on a tree... 
She's everything that every girl should be! 

Yep,
Erin's the tinsel on the tree
around here for sure!
