Sweet Mazi Jane

We were sent home a note asking to send in a picture to school of our child in a winter setting. I scanned through some photos and only had a couple recent ones. I found one of my favorites and sent it in. Well little Janebird cried on the way home from school because the kids in her class laughed at her hat and told her it was too tall. She was really upset and her feelings were very hurt. This is the picture I sent in:I think she looks adorable! At first I was sad that her feelings were hurt. Then I was mad that the teacher allowed the kids to laugh. Then I wanted to throw up as I thought "this is just the beginning of the teasing and kids being kids".... so, I did the best I could to encourage her and tell her how beautiful she is and that she can be confidant in herself through Christ. And that I will sign her up for Karate so she can beat up the kids who laughed at her. (jk)

So as I sit here wearing the hat in question way up high on my head (she laughed and it makes her feel better) I thank God for my tender hearted sweet Mazi Jane and I pray that he will fill her with confidence, strength, boldness and wisdom.
