I am not perfect, but Yahweh is.
I am flawed, incomplete, and wanting. But HE is perfect, flawless, magnificent. And He loves me. I have never been more aware of just how much than on this day 12 years ago. The gift He gave me late that unforgettable night turned my selfish, inadequate life upside down. And how could I have known then all that she would mean to me, all that she would mean to all of us. The beauty, charm, and melody that Emma Catherine adds to this world is matchless. And I will exhaust every moment of everyday making sure she knows it.

Happy Birthday Emma!
