Okay, Julie, here it is. Is this the sweet little angel that you fell in love with? It looks like she's praying in this picture. Actually, she is. She's praying that I don't beat her for playing in the water fountain. We had major fights over that water fountain each and every day of VBS.
Seriously, VBS was great and I thank you for loving on her. I know that she is a handful, but I am more than blessed to have her. She was made just for me. Before she came along, I didn't know if I could ever love anyone the way I loved my sister. I helped raise her and I always had more of a motherly love for her than a sisterly love. But God gave me a little girl that is the spittin image of her Aunt Chelsea. She is beautiful, funny, loud, loving, and defiant. Just like Aunt Chelsea.
I watch her sing and dance to the VBS songs and I pray that she will choose to follow Jesus as she grows. When you ask her "Who loves you?", she always answers, "JESUS". I hope that she never forgets that.

I hope she never forgets that Jesus is her Savior (Viva). Thanks for the pic, Izabel totally rocks!!! And thank you for letting me love on her. I have four daughters and know how they can be and yours is truly a blessing.
Let's redefine this. Izabel is passionate about "coloring outside the lines" so to speak. Bet you didn't know that sweet little Bailey Rose is the same? Izabel actually gave me a hug when she came to the nursery last week. How cool is that???!!! Just think if she grabs on to the Jesus rope and doesn't let go, what a force to contend with!! LOOK OUT WORLD!
Maybe that's why I love Bailey so much.
Wow, she's really growing up, isn't she? She's definitely not a baby anymore!
