My big girl Eliza.
How that phrase makes me sad and happy at the same time!
She is such a treasure to me and while I wish I could keep her little and safe forever, I know that my job is to help her grow and to grow well!
One of the things I have learned as a parent is that I cannot stand by and just merely watch the days go by. I am always asking God for the grace and wisdom with how to teach her and show her how to be the girl (and woman) she has been intended to be!

Here is a tea party she set up all by herself around the time Cora was born! It seemed as though when Cora came, Eliza turned a developmental corner. She all of a sudden seemed so grown and big... but she's still my baby, and when she curls up in my lap to snuggle I am reminded of just how little she still is.
