A great joy these days is knowing my children as adults. My memory locker is full of images of three little girls prancing around, playing with friends, and filling the back seats of our minivan or next to me in the pickup truck. Now they are young women. They have negotiated higher education and found careers. They have walked down the pathways of love and found life partners (two married and one engaged) and Meredith has four children of her own. They have joined the ranks of the rest of us as adults and I enjoy knowing them as grownups. They are people with purpose and they walk with Jesus resident in their hearts. They are good and close friends to others and seek to brighten their corners of the world. We can joke as adults together too and it is good to see that humor has passed to the next generation. And, best of all, they are still (and will always be) my little girls!
Job 42:15 Nowhere in all the land were there found women as beautiful as Job's (Rob's) daughters
