Homecoming

Tonight was a sweet night. My niece is going to the homecoming dance with her "dream" date. They came by for me to see them before they left. Beautiful. She was absolutely beautiful with her hair and nails done - her beautiful sequined black dress.

I have watched her grow up and at 16, she has become such a beautiful young lady. She was absolutely glowing. She has spent so much time with me over the past couple of years - it is just like she is one of my own.

I had tears of joy in my eyes watching them leave. I pray that they have such a wonderful time. She still has so much growing up to do, but tonight, she was cinderella at the ball.
