My Girls

Gabby graduated high school last week.  Angel finishes elementary school next week.  As a father I could not be more proud of both of them.  With everything they have been through they have not only kept their grades up they have excelled.  Gabby was a mid-term graduate.  Angel has consistently tested advanced at the state level each year.  I am blessed and grateful when I think of what they have done and know what they are capable of doing in the future.  I frequently find myself wanting to just sit back and watch them.  They are so smart, loving, compassionate and funny.  They love each other unconditionally and support each other in every way.  They have a very unique and special relationship and you can see the strength they give each other.  They are very funny, especially when teaming up on their father for a Pick on Papa session.  I pray that they always keep this closeness.  It wasn't always there but they have realized how much they love each other and have done everything possible to show and grow that love each day.  

Watching them grow and mature has been the thrill of my life.  I will continue to be thrilled, amazed and proud of them forever.  I still stop and think about my own childhood & early adult years and wonder how I ever got from there to having daughters.  With each day I will give thanks and praise to God for giving me two such special girls.
