Dear Buggy,

Happy 8th birthday baby girl! I cannot believe I’ve been your mommy for 8 years now! You are getting so grown-up these days. You are a big help to me, and can be so sweet with your sisters. You are talented and thoughtful, passionate and determined! Nothing can stand in your way once you put your mind to something!  

My prayer for you comes straight from Colossians 1:9-10 We have not ceased to pray for you and to ask that you may be filled with the knowledge of His will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding, so that you will walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, to please Him in all respects, bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God.

Nothing makes me happier than to see you glorifying God with your life. I pray that your hunger for Him will outweigh every other thing in your life and that you will use your life for His glory, whatever that might look like. I know that He has amazing plans for you Buggy girl! Go after them with all your heart! You are my strong-willed, strong-hearted girl, and you are unstoppable! Use that for His glory and you’ll never go wrong!

I love you so so very much. You are more precious to me than I could ever say. Happy Birthday!

Love, Mommy
