I have been blessed with three children. Each has their own unique personality. There are days that I wonder if I have taught Matt and Hannah the proper ways to be a sibling to Mallory. There are days that I know are difficult for them. Mallory's behaviors can be challenging. There are days that just don't go well.
When I have this seed of doubt, my children so softly remind me that Mallory is God's creation. Created in his likeness. Unique in his very vision. Just like every one of us. As a parent my duty is to guide my children in their walk with the Lord. Yet, there are days I find them leading me. As a family, we grow daily in our walk.
This picture reminds me that even on the craziest of days. The days when Mallory takes the unbeaten path. Her siblings still see her as Mallory, their sister and they look past her differences or sometimes away from them.
