Camden Chaise

There is so much we hope for her, and it's all in her name. We hope that she'll grow to be a woman who truly pursues and savors all that God has to offer: his grace, his discipline, his playground, his people, his love.

But how do I show her how to do that when I'm so afraid of embracing it myself?

How can I introduce her to a God that I haven't even begun to really know?

How do I protect her from making the same mistakes that I've made? 

How do I teach her to expect what is unexpected from a God who is supposed to have revealed all that we need to know in "his word"?

How do I keep her from believing all the crap I've had to unlearn?

Parenthood sucks.
