Ridgell's Originals

Today is our Jamie's birthday.  Technically she is our daughter-in-law, but we think of her as our third kid. I talk about her and Julie as our girls.  Part of that is because we actually think of her as our daughter but it is also because she absolutely treats us as her parents.

So here are just a few of the reasons I love our Jamie.

She loves Jesus.  And it shows.  I know she is a prayer warrior.  She talks to people about why she follows Jesus.  She reads and studies her Bible. 

Jamie is there for her people.  And she has a lot of people.  Great wife, super Mom, amazing daughter, loving sister, and best friend to a lot of gal pals.

She is hospitable.  She and Joe Don use their home.  A lot.  Small group, family gatherings, kid's hangout.  It is a place to go for fun, fellowship, food, prayer, study, and spiritual advice.

She never gets rattled.  OK.  I know she must get overwhelmed sometimes but she handles whatever life brings. 

So I love our Jamie.  And I am proud of who she is.  And whose she is. 

So God thanks for Jamie.  Watch over her, protect her, use her.  Do great things thru her.  In the name of the one she serves.  Amen.
