Bailey Ann Golding

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BAILEY!


You see, I have a sister named Bailey Ann Golding.
She is my second younger sister.
She is very amazing in so many ways. 

Today she turns 12 and I honestly cannot believe it!
I can still remember packing up my Nintendo 64 games and going to Natalie Capener's house at the "butt crack of dawn" because mom was going to the hospital to have you.  What an exciting day it was: to have a new little sister!!  What a blessing it is to have you in my life.  

Bailey, you are kind, smart as a whip, and a great example to me.
I love the way you are not afraid to speak up for what is right.
I love how you are so computer savvy like Penelope on Criminal Minds.
I love how when I look through my church notebooks, I have many of your testimonies written down from all the Fast Sundays you wrote down your testimony before you bore it over the pulpit.
I love how funny and quirky you are.  Your bubbly personality brightens my day.
You are beautiful, inside and out.
I love you Bailey Annie.  

HAPPY 12th BIRTHDAY!
Make it wonderful.  :)

A New Kind of Wonderful

Sometimes, life happens.  Disappointment is crippling.  You cry because of the blackness that has filled a place in your heart.  

Yet, in the midst of all of the heartache a different kind of light fills your little heart.  A new kind of wonderful that you have never experienced before takes hold and helps you smile through the hard times.    Although things aren't perfect right now, I can't stop smiling.  It's exactly what I need and it's amazing.   I thank my Heavenly Father everyday for something so wonderful.
