Jordan's 15!


Today Jordan is 15. How did this happen so quickly? I have been home for almost every day of her life. Our only time apart in 15 years has been my trip to New England 5 years ago (she went camping with Tim and the boys), her few days at a summer bible camp in the mountains, a small handful of sleepovers at friends' houses, and my 2 part-time jobs a few years ago. Other than that, I've been there every day of her life - yet it still went by so quickly. When young parents are told how quickly the time passes, it's hard to believe because you're just entering a life-long commitment. When you're caught up in the day to day of changing diapers, running from sports to dance and other classes, and trying to keep an organized home, it's hard to understand how fast the years will pass.

Happy Birthday, Jordan! I'm proud of who you're becoming.
