Faith's 8th grade dance

Well, the school year is winding down and as an 8th grader, Faith gets to participate in several promotion activities. Last night she went to the 8th grade dance at The Crossings, a local golf course club house. She looked absoutely beautiful!

I started feeling really sick yesterday afternoon. I felt like I had the flu. My body ached and my head hurt. But, Faith needed my help to get ready for the dance. The entire time I was curling her hair I thought I was going to throw up. I took some advil, but it hadn't kicked in yet. Faith kept apologizing for wanting my help when I was feeling sick. I kept thinking that this was the only thing I wanted to be doing. Helping my baby girl daughter meant so much to me. About a year ago, her friend's mom passed away and I was thinking how blessed I am to be able to help her get ready. It meant so much to me. There seem to be fewer time like this the older she gets.

Faith had a great time at the dance. Three boys wanted to dance with her and she turned them all down, good girl!! She had fun dancing and hanging out with her friends and said "it was really fun."
