Today our second oldest daughter turned 16... our rough and tumble tomboy.  She can dress up and play the lady or take you out in a hearty game of air soft.  She is beauty and she is rugged wilderness.  Smart.  Artistic.  Fun.  Exasperating.  Stubborn.  Thank You Lord for the opportunity to be a mother to such a daughter.  My own mother always told me that she hoped I would have a daughter just like me to understand what I put her through.     It's been a wonderful journey so far.  Not always "peachy", but certainly "sweet and spicy".            Happy Birthday Beth!!!
