Day 8: Sweetpea

My youngest daughter Tiffany (also known as sweet pea) is feminine as can be but as tough as nails too. A true steel magnolia.



What made me grateful today was thinking about Tiffany's unrelenting willpower (some would say it is a tendency toward stubbornness- like her mom.)


For example, she is a competitive team player. Tiffany is a skinny little girl- dwarfed by most of the other soccer players in the Under 10 league. However, out on the field she is determined and unafraid- running, kicking and moving on the field like a true champ. Where does she get her gumption? I'm not sure -though I know that courage and strength will be a valuable asset in her life- my little sweet pea.
