Thank Heaven For Little Girls



“Thank heaven for little girls; for little girls get bigger every day! Thank heaven for little girls; they grow up in the most delightful way! Those little eyes so helpless and appealing
one day will flash and send you crashin' thru the ceilin'. Thank heaven for little girls;
thank heaven for them all, no matter where no matter who for without them, what would little boys do?”

Whenever I see Ripley’s picture (see to the left), the song “Thank Heaven for Little Girls” from the movie “Gigi” pops in my head. Little Ripley is such a little treasure. I thank God daily for His gift of her in Teresa and my life. She has changed our lives for the good. She has taught me more about the love of our Heavenly Father than any book I have read. The love I have for her; the things I would do to protect her; and the things I want for her I know pail in comparison of what our Heaven Father wants for her and for us.

Ripley is so adorable and she changes almost daily. She is so loving and cuddly to her Mommy and me. I can’t wait to see how her personally develops and who she will grow to be.
