New Beginnings

 Last night, Sammi was presented as a new Beehive in the Young Women program. (She will be joining them in July.) I cannot believe how fast my first baby has grown. My only girl. My princess. My Sammi Sunshine. Oh how grateful I am she was sent to me! She is the most glorious daughter I could have ever hoped for. She makes me want to be a better person. :-) I have loved watching her grow and develop over the years. One of my favorite things about her is she is passionate about things (you could call it obsessed, too). She is very motivated. I especially love to hear her play the piano, since I was never disciplined enough to learn. She can play for me while I sing, which is a unique and special experience. She is fabulous. Yes, I gush. I can't help it! I love this girl. 

The New Beginnings program was really lovely. The push this year is for family history work, so I was loving that! They were given a key to represent being the key to the salvation of their ancestors, by doing their temple work. Such a cute handout. 
Sammi was happy to be there. They asked her a few questions about herself, including who was her favorite super-hero. She said, "Iron Man . . . because he reminds her of her dad." :-) Cute. 
 Oh time . . . will you ever slow down?? 











 I went from holding Sammi as a small baby . . . now Sammi is holding my smallest baby. 
How did that happen? 
I love you girlie! 
I dreamed a dream . . . of a daughter exactly like you.
