Celebrating My Daughter’s Birthday

October 28, 2015 By Mary Hill 9 Comments

She Turned 13 Today

In celebration of this milestone, I created a montage of her growing up years to date. It is hard to believe this time 13 years ago, my daughter came into the world after I labored for 36 long hours.  Her smile and love continue to bless me daily.

    Oh my gosh time does fly. My girls are all grown up and my grandbabies are getting so big so fast.

    Your daughter looks stunning in the pink dress. Say happy 13th birthday to her for me.

    Best wishes, Darlene

    Beautiful girl! I’m actually nursing my daughter as I read this, so it’s a good reminder of how fast they grow!;-)

      Leslie, that is so true. They grow fast. I looked at these photos and thought back. As mothers, we need to realize our children are under our care for only 18 to 20 years. That is really the smallest span of their lifetimes. How do we make it the most productive? That is fodder for more posts. Thanks for stopping by.
