Dear 2nd Grader,
I love you to pieces and I hope you hear it out of my mouth daily... multiple times a day for that matter!   Every day you grow up more and more and I have to learn let you blossom and grow and enjoy life.  You truly shine- you shine bright for God where ever you go.   You recently just started to read and write your own devo's and is awesome.  I am in awe of you often as I see you singing for Jesus and the Joy you shine throughout the day.  You also get great ideas... you are a true dreamer always coming up with wonderful ideas!

                                       Love always,
