Happy Birthday, Bailey Girl!

Wow! Was it 16 years ago? Bailey, you were much anticipated by all your family. I recall so vividly making a trip to Oklahoma, just in hopes that you would be born. When you finally arrived, your ACU aunt and uncles told everyone we knew about you. I had pictures of you in my dorm room. (I can only imagine what would have filled up a blog like this if they existed then!) We loved to sit around and watch you. You delighted us with your smiles and coos, just like your littlest cousins do now! You wowed us with your amazing giftedness when you quoted the entire story of Snow White and the Evil Malificent. We were all so proud of our little niece! You were a precious baby and you've grown up to be a beautiful young woman. We are still all so proud of you! It delights us to know you are sharing your faith with those around you, encouraging younger girls to be pure, and being a godly role model for our kids. I thank God today for your life and pray that He will continue to use you to show Himself to the world. Happy Birthday!

Love,
Trisha, Ben, Alex, Katy & Elijah
