My sweet Anna

From your ladybug birthday cakes to your foot selfies to your cute little lisp when you were small, to crawling into bed with me early in the morning after Papa left for work, I love you so, so much and you will always be our ladybug.

My sweet, you are an encouraging, selfless, helpful, loving, tender-hearted young lady. Life is stressful sometimes and you are always there to help and encourage. I remember when you were much younger and would sit me down for “talking sessions” where I would tell you my problems and you would “fix” them for me. 😃 And that’s the kind of person you are still, putting aside your desires when you see I need help.

I so enjoy our time together when we work in the kitchen and see your skill and creativity when you bake. Your willingness to jump in, even when you haven’t done something before, is admirable. I love that I get to watch you grow into a beautiful young woman and am so glad the Lord made me your mom.

I love my Anna Gale. Oh yes it’s true.
I love my Anna Gale, and I’ll be true.
When you’re not near me, I’m blue.
Oh Anna Gale, I love you!
