Beauty

Saturday morning, we all slept in. When Olivia woke up, we were playing with her on our bed. We were holding her, talking to her, and kissing her all over. And everytime I said "Hey beautiful!" she just broke out in the biggest grin. So I would say other things, and then say "Hey beautiful!" and she would get another huge smile on her face. Even when Theo called her beautiful, you could tell she just loved it. It made me think about what we all desire as women, and young ladies. We want to be beautiul. We want to feel that someone is paying attention to us, noticing us, and not just for our physical beauty, but our inner beauty too. Whether we are blessed enough to have parents who raised us to know our beauty, or are blessed enough to have a husband that thinks we are beautiful, we always have God. He created us and knows our true beauty more than anyone else. After all, we are created in His image, and nothing is more beautiful than that. So here is to all the women in my life. Each and every one of you is beautiful, inside and out. I'm blessed to know you all. And I'm even more blessed to have a beautiful daughter. I hope I can show her everyday just how truly beautiful she is!

I love all the pictures of her trying to and actually smiling. What a precious baby girl. You look good too. Doesn't look like you just had a baby!
