She’s one of the kindest souls I know. She made me a mom and changed my life. I’m so grateful God sent you to us, Paisley. You make me better and I’m so proud of the wonderful person you are. You’re always going with the flow, have a happy attitude, go out of your way to include others, and constantly have a joke in queue for us. It’s the best!

I love your zest for animals, art, and reading. I love belting Dolly & Kenny in the jeep, going on bike rides, and watching Father of the Bride, Mr. Ed, Brady Bunch, Little House on the Prairie, and Bonanza with you. I love seeing you create with anything you can find outside, tagging behind as you ride your horse bareback, and enjoying the land by exploring the creeks and picking wildflowers. You constantly are looking for a sunset after a long day and pointing out stars that appear soon after, admiring the beauty of it all. You always notice the little details and uniqueness of creation and it serves as a reminder to me daily to do the same. To not forget who made us and the majesty of our Creator. 

You know who you are in the Lord and that your heart belongs to Him. Always standing steadfast in your belief in Him alone. That makes me the proudest of all. 

I love cheering you on in every season of your life and know that whatever path it takes you, you’ll do wonderful, beautiful things. Being your mom is the joy of my life. 

Happy Birthday, I love you forever.
