Thank you mom : ) 

{ being apart of birth I have a deeper gratefulness for everything }

 { you went through to bring me into this world. }

Looking back on the last 25 years of my life all I can say is 

how thankful I am that God never left my side. 

23rd progressive dinner birthday

for the family he added me into at the very last minute. 

the places He has brought me. 
the countries I have explored. 
the beautiful hearts I have got to build relationships with. 
the memories He desired for me to have. 

I am one blessed girl. 
in so many ways. 

21st birthday in New York City

I have grown. healed. learned. laughed. cried. & more this last year. 
through it all. 
He has been faithful. 
opening doors. 
refining my skills.
deepening relationships. 
planting desires.

This next year I have a list of 25 things I want to 
accomplish. do. learn. & challenge myself.
