13 of 52

I'm participating in a year long challenge, created by Carin. The goal is to be in one picture a week, for 52 weeks. Since us moms are always behind the camera, this gives us a chance to get out in front and be in the pictures with our family. Fun challenge, right? You can join too! Just jump in right now and let me know you're playing along! Carin has added a Mr. Linky on Thursdays...so that we can check out each others pictures.
This was taken at our Church's Senior Recognition day. Samantha is our "adopted" daughter, she is like our very own and we are so very proud of her. One of the things the Sunday School teachers have the Seniors do is fill out a questionnaire explaining what their future holds and where they are going to school but one thing that was very special was "I want to thank". Our sweet Sam said this "I want to thank Caleb and LeAnn for all the love and support they give me they are like my second parents" well Caleb teared up and I was balling. I pray that the Lord will bless her and that she will stay on the right track and most importantly keep Him in the center of her life.

Love the pic. I need to join in with the challenge, b/c I am usually behind the camera or running from the camera.
