Last weekend my ladies group at church held a wonderful dinner for Valentines Day. We decided instead of doing a "traditional couples" event....we wanted to do a date night for all dads and daughters. It turned out to be one of the most special events I have been to in a long time. I realized my youngest daughter, who will always be "my baby" at heart, is not a baby anymore. She will be 11 in a few months. Since we live out in the country, most of the time she's wearing her favorite things....worn out jeans and crocs!!! But, last Saturday, she put on a dress and jewelry to have dinner with her Daddy!!! Brought tears to my eyes...and Travis' too!! As I peeked out from the kitchen, where us moms were preparing the meal and such, I was in awe at the faces sitting around the tables! I cant tell you who was glowing more...the girls or the dads. I hope the memories made that night stay will them for years and years to come...I know mine will......
