Look Out World I'm (Juliette) 3!



Dear Juliette,

You are so much stinkin' fun... Just today at your dentist appointment, you told the hygienist  "Watch this!" in the middle of your X-Rays and you crossed your eyes quickly and put them back straight and flashed your precocious grin.

God has given you so many gifts... you are bright, sweet, active (you started swinging at age 2), and a total delight. YOU are God's gift to us and those whose lives you touch.

 There are many days where your energy amazes me (and gets best of me).  I wouldn't trade it for the world.  You keep teaching me about grace.  This last year you have learned so much.  How to scooter.  How to meet friends. How to sing your ABCs. How to use the potty.  The list goes on.  While you have learned an exhaustive list of practical and not so practical skills... you have taught me so much more.

I love birthday time.  It's a time to really sit and remember what a precious gift you are to me.  I pray that more than anything, you really get God's extravagant, crazy, radical grace. Juliette Grace Meleana Perdue- Happy 3rd Birthday.  I can't wait to see what we learn about this year.
