Happy Birthday Emma ~ 15!


“Granddaughter”

The birth of a child is
God’s blessing,
to those who have been
longing for you

Gloriously He created you,
the precious child,
showing us again,
His mystery of miracles

Giving you a loving heart,
He filled it with
sweetness and charm
Your delicate smile glows
and lights up the darkest night

God gave you love
and with that love,
you bring happiness and joy
to all you tenderly touch

You are the sparkle in life
that has been missing,
for so many of us
Your halo of innocence’s
surrounds the waiting world
showing us hope and direction
For you precious child,
are the future of us all
