Sugar & Beeps are 13

February 1997, the girls were 3 months old here. Rachel is on the left.

The girls in August 1997, 9 months old, eating...peanut-butter and jelly....eekkk! Things sure have changed in 13 years!

I could spend days, uploading photos of the girls over the years. They have truly been a blessing to my life. I know ALL moms say that about their babies, but I really feel this way. They were a total surprise to Dave and I. There was a time when I was overwhelmed with the thought of having 3 kids under the age of 2 and not knowing how I would be able to do what is best and what is right for them. The LORD has shown Himself ALL SUFFICIENT. His master plan has and will continue to be BEAUTIFUL. So, here's to my gals...the smartest and most beautiful teenage girls I know...(((wink)))...You are my greatest accomplishment and my greatest reward.
