Friday the 13th
On this Friday the 13th, a day before a full moon, my oldest daughter turns twelve and thankfully not 13. Does this mean the start of puberty will resemble a monster movie?
Twelve years ago, I found a new love.
Twelve years ago, I grew up.
Twelve years ago, she took her first airplane ride.
Twelve years ago, she had the world praying for her.
Twelve years ago, my baby took her first breath.
That first breath, that first cry, gave me faith, for if he is watching over her.
