A Lionness' Pride

Well, this morning I'm all aglow with the feelings of pride that only a parent can feel!
My oldest DD (Dearest Daughter) came home for the evening last night to spend time with her Mom (that's me) and the new "Boy". Part of the reason for coming home was to discuss her recent letter of acceptance to teacher's college and her choices of placements. My goodness there is a lot to think about, where will the funds come from, where will she live, where should she do her placements (none of them close to home). All that aside she is going to be a High School Teacher! A Science and Math teacher no less! Certainly not the subjects that her old Mom excelled at. (good thing the apple falls a little futher away from the tree than some think!) Seriously though, HOW EXCITING is that!

The middle DD is experiencing some sentimental thoughts where summers past and youth are concerned and wondering about the mystery that we call our future. This DD of mine is the most dedicated, level headed and probably the most brilliant person I have ever had the pleasure of knowing. She works hard for the things she wants and for that she will always succeed at all that she does! The rewards will always outweigh the hard work in the end!

The youngest DD, oh what to say about this girl! She has a great sense of humour, takes the world on with little concern for anything but the current moment! She has all the characteristics of your normal 14 year old girl! The funny thing is, as a parent to two older daughters...why have I never experienced this before? The baby is coming along and is proving to the world that she too will succeed in her very own way!

All three of my Dearest Daughter's make me thankful every day that God graced me with the privilidge, responsibility and honour of raising them into this world.
Ahhh....a mother's pride!
