29 years ago Doug and I became parents for the very first, but certainly not the last, time.
Yes, this is the one who started it all!
She's also the one who has encouraged us to keep at it.
And if this beautiful, intelligent, God loving, young woman is any indication, we are pretty darn good at it.
We can't take all the credit, though.
Parenting is one case where we have relied heavily on the instruction manual.
Proverbs 14:26
In the fear of the LORD one has strong confidence,and his children will have a refuge.

Proverbs 22:6
Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it.
Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it.
Colossians 3:21
Fathers, do not provoke your children, lest they become discouraged.
Fathers, do not provoke your children, lest they become discouraged.
Happy birthday Mandy! You are a true BLESSING!
