Sariah turned 13!
Spechts gave her fairy lights, Gp and Gm Wells gave her a gift card and Gm Hales sent a beautiful handmade card. James and I gave her a super soft blanket which she has affectionately named "lamby." She got herself a glass microwave popcorn bowl that she uses almost daily.
Even though it was HER birthday, when I went out to the van to take her to school, I found 13 handmade envelopes tied with baker's twine. Inside each one was an inspirational quote--just perfect for my concerns.
I can't even imagine what our family and our lives would be like without this amazing girl! The night before her birthday was Young Women in Excellence. She came so, so close to earning her entire Young Womanhood Award in one year. Even though she just finished reading the Book of Mormon for her Personal Progress, she jumped right on the challenge from the prophet when he asked the women of the church to read it before the end of the year.
This is what she did for her YW's leader. She makes everything more beautiful!
