spiderman princess

I know I just blogged about my fabulous daughter, but I must paint a picture for you of what I am seeing through my office window.

Keona is walking with her daddy outside--they normally walk together in the mornings. Today, Keona is dressed in her big brother's red and blue spiderman costume complete with bulging muscles. On her feet she has pink rain boots and on her head she has a silver princess crown.

My dear spiderman princess is also smiling ear to ear as she holds her daddy's hand and looks up at him with wonder.

These moments are beyond beautiful. Often in these moments I breathe a prayer of blessing over Keona's birthmom. She chose to give Keona life. And she chose to give Keona the opportunity to have an incredible daddy who treasures her, protects her, and treats her like the princess she truly is.

As I watch Keona grow from day to day I know beyond a shadow of a doubt: that choice will change the world.
