🌟 To be loved, I believe, is to be seen and embraced for the little child you really are... 🌟

Boy oh boy, do I feel loved today.

Ever since I was a smelly girl, I dreamt of an adventure that would never end, in a place where no one could tell me to grow up. Without timetables or bedtimes. Without worries or fear. A place where I could be free yet safe, wild yet home. Loved and known.

Most of all, I dreamt of sharing this land with other lost boys and girls...

Thank you to all my incredibly loving friends who on Tuesday night made this dream come true. I am so so so so rich through the love God has blessed me with; surrounded by the most beautiful, generous, thoughtful people ever. People who hold different parts of my heart, who see me in different ways and who all made me feel so special. Thank you so much for loving me and making this birthday so wonderfully whimsical❤️

As I turn 26, I look back on this dream I have had since before I could speak, and realise again... This longing I hold, is for an eternity that is calling us all home.

Thank you Lord that because of you, this lost girl is only ever pretending to be lost - because in you I am truly found. Thank you Lord that my dream is not a just dream, but a promise from you; a beautiful promise of an eternity spent with our heavenly Father, who is both infinitely younger and older than we.

Thank you Jesus for another year seeing more and embracing more of you.

Here's to growing younger everyday 🍃
