Esther turns EIGHT: 07-22-21


Celebr - eight!

This has been the most fun year! What a delight you are to watch grow. Not only in years or height but in the way you mature and in virtue. 



Your contagious smile that brings such joy to those around you.

You love creating. Creating new hair styles, new clothes for you dolls or with marker and pens. 


Nothing escapes your creative outlet. 


The night we camped in the backyard as a family. 


You enjoy playing with legos and Calico Critters.  You are the master of puzzles!

You love your doll, Sarah who you were so patient in saving for and even did jobs to earn money to buy her ON YOUR OWN! 

You enjoy doing your hair in all sorts of ways.

You are magical to be around. Everything seen through your eyes is more vivid and beautiful. I love being able to share this life journey with you. 



Dearest Esther, 

The Lord has been close to you this year. Whispering in your ear and saying you are HIS! He has been so gracious in showing Himself to you in oh, such perfect timing. That one night when you were fearful and asking "but why?" He showed up and it was such an honor to watch your revelation and realization and in turn how your walk with Him grew so much closer. Thank you for showing yourself to me and gifting me each special moment you share. 

The first time Grandma held you.
