15



Paige is 15 today! I still remember waiting for her to make her arrival into the world. (it was long) I remember her as this amazing 2 year old who knew everything and believe it or not HELPED when her brother was born. I remember her going to preschool for the first time, kindergarten, middle school..now HIGH SCHOOL.

I am blessed beyond measure with Paige. I say it often,but she is an amazing and abnormal teenager. Not that there haven't been hard moments here and there, but wow...She is so cool!

15 years lived, 15 years of joy (mixed with a little pain), 15 years of laughter (mixed with a few tears), 15 years of blessings...

So today I am writing the 15 things I love about Paige.

1. She loves the Lord with a passion and purpose. Knowing the right things to do and choosing to do them.
2. She is loyal. She will not change her mind about you..she gives people more chances and more forgiveness than anyone I have ever met.
