HAPPY 25th birthday to the girl who made me a grandma for the first time!!!
Alyssa I can’t believe so much time
has passed! Also, how much our lives have changed in those 25 years.
You were so precious, so unique, (and you still are) from day one. Our Father God knew what you would endure in just a few short years. He made you strong, yet gentle, caring, giving, smart, and funny!
You have your mom’s sarcastic personality and your dad’s face!
I know that they would both be so proud of the young woman you’ve become.
Watching you grow all these years and turn from a scared little girl into a brave “I can take on the whole world” young woman has been one of my greatest joys. You’ve been my princess since day one. Remember how I always said I’m the queen, you are my princess and Toria is the princess in training? Well, darlin you trained your sister well. She is now a princess and you are a queen in your own right. You have left my nest and are making your way in our society. You took on college like you’d been there your whole life, then you went to grad school and got your masters degree, and now, you are on one coast while I’m on the opposite coast. You’re well on your way to getting your PhD. Always remember who you belong to! You are a precious child
Of the Most High God! He is always with you. That is His promise to you. He will never leave you or forsake you! Keep Him close at all times and nothing can stop you! Lean on Him! Ask Him for help, guidance, discernment, strength and wisdom.
I love you more than words can express!!! Have a day full of His blessings and enjoy your most amazing 25th birthday!
I’ll leave you with Jer. 29:11
“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”
