Because of You Mallory~Happy Birthday!


Because of you, 17 years ago, your Dad and I learned what it meant to live for another besides ourselves.



It was then that I desired, more than ever, to be a better person.



Because of you...we wanted more little "wonderfuls" and your awesome sisters came along. ;)


Because of you...I'm a homeschooling mom that learns much,much more than I teach.


Because of you, our lives are full of laughter and joy~




Happy 17th Birthday sweet Mallory!


May the Lord bless you and lead you to seek His will~

we are SO PROUD of you hon.

Does your daughter know what a special Mom she has?!?!? I agree with you that raising kids is the most important job in the world but I'd be the first to say it ain't easy!

Because of you, Marlena, and your husband, your "wonderfuls" are growing up as thoughtful, warm-hearted, generous, well-educated young women who will, when the time is right, be moms just like you: amazing!
Because of you, thoughts of my niece (she turned 3 last week) and nephew (ONE tomorrow!) fill my heart, spilling over...
Because of you, my day has been brightened, my spirit lifted, and my creativity sparked.
Thank you for sharing, for inspiring, for being YOU!
