Princess Leia


My little girl Leia turns 3 today. I love playing tea, love making faces with Leia, tickling her, rubbing her little feet, chasing her and kissing her. I wont be able to explain in this post how incredibly wonderful and awesome she is. What I can say about my little girl, is that she has changed my life and made me better all around. It's an honor to be the father of Princess Leia.

A friend of mine yesterday gave me a great nugget of wisdom on raising daughters. I was told every girl needs to know one thing from their Dad, "Daddy am I worth fighting for?"

My daughter is worth fighting for, her purity, safety, honor, future, hopes, dreams, her entire life and all that God has created her to become it's worth fighting for. I will fight for my marriage so she knows how to fight for her's one day. I may not be the best Dad, but I will fight to be the best that she needs in her life. I will fight to be an example of a Christ follower in her life. You are mighty, valuable, precious, beautiful, purposed, unique, and there is only one of you on this entire earth. I take this mission, this mandate, this God given opportunity to fight for my daughter. Yes baby girl, you are worth fighting for and Daddy will be sure to fight for you every step of the way!

Happy Birthday!
