Here are 12 reasons:

  • I get to cheer from the sidelines…
  • I get to see my legacy live through others…
  • I get to keep growing so they can watch me grow…
  • I get to watch boys become men…
  • I get to share wisdom and experience…
  • I get to be two boy’s biggest fan…
  • I get to share stories with others about my boys…
  • I get to receive encouragement to stay young-minded…
  • I get to anticipate daily texts, emails, and phone calls…(or iChats…)
  • I get to enjoy my new daughter (Thanks for marrying Jeremy! Let’s update the family pic!…)
  • I get to be continually challenged as I learn from my boys…
  • I get to point my boys to Christ…

Awesome. Missed having a daughter
I get the unspeakable privilege and challenge of being the most important influence in the lives of two young women and one young man.
