Twenty-Two
Happy 22nd Birthday, Cammie!
On July 30, 1990, I became a Mama to a future Soldier. {Also a future Drama Queen!}
Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.
Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the Lord, and depart from evil.
Proverbs 3:5-7
Tomorrow morning on your 22nd birthday I’ll be leaving on a jet plane for Ecuador. I couldn’t have imagined twenty two years ago that I’d be on my way to minister along side of Missionaries to children in Ecuador. These are children who not only lack the material possessions that we’ve come to call necessities, but many of them lack the love they so desperately need.
I anticipated that by this time—less than twelve hours til my departure—that I’d be more anxious than I am right now. I’m really not anxious. At least now. Away from airport security. I’m at peace and I’m so grateful to know that while I’m leaving my family behind, I know that you are working together to take on my role as Mama and Nanny {The Grandmother Nanny, not to be confused with my other roles as Aunt Nanny or Sitter Nanny although you may get calls for that.}.
As I’ve prepared for leaving and made sure that all of the details are covered, I’ve realized what amazing girls I have. And I couldn’t be more proud. I’m so proud of the sister, mother and daughter that you are. You know how to take care of your own. I’m grateful for the time we spent together the other night and I look forward to more dinner and shopping plans with you and your sisters when I get back.
As you journey through this season of life where you’ve encountered struggle and changes that you couldn’t have known were coming several years back, know that I will always be praying. And God is still on His throne. I pray that you will not be distracted from the plans He has for you. I pray that He will lead you with wisdom and draw you closer than ever before.
This year, may you know more than ever before the amazing, beautiful person He called you to be! May your laugh that is infectious bring joy to those around you! May your cup overflow with His joy!
I love you more than digging my toes in the ocean’s sandy shore.
Mama
