Sweet 16: Grit & Grace


 This girl!  She makes us laugh with her silliness, she makes us proud with her diligence, she turns 16 today.  Our funny, rock solid, determined, hilarious, sarcastic, refuse to back down, loving Jesus, amazing daughter, loyal friend Valentine.  She came into this world with a zest for life.  Always making everyone laugh while she entertained everyone around her with her crazy hair and "crazy eyes" as she called them. When she was just a wee 18 months old, she could light up a room with conversation that most adults couldn't take on!


She has seen us walk through fire and always been steady with her love and so ready to forgive our broken parenting.  Her desire to learn about life and love and Jesus astounds me daily.  She has met the challenges of growing up thus far with a grace that we couldn't have ever imagined. She can walk into her high school government class proudly being the only conservative in a largely democratic area and proudly debate her side.  She can stand up for the issues of her heart with her friends with out backing down and be proud of what she stands for.  She is ready to face life with grit and grace.  We are so proud of you KK, and are so very excited about what this next year holds for you!
Happy 16th Kathryn!
