To my beautiful granddaughter, Leabella.
Heavenly Father God,
Today, I thank You with all my heart for the gift of my beautiful granddaughter. Three years ago, You placed this radiant little soul in our lives, and every day since has been brighter because of her smile, her laughter, and her spirit.
Lord, I ask You to bless her with joy that overflows, with peace that calms her tiny heart, and with love that surrounds her wherever she goes.
May she grow strong and kind, wise and gentle. May her heart always be tender, and her dreams always be big. Protect her steps, guide her paths, and place kind people around her as she grows.
Help her to always know how deeply she is loved—not just by us, but by You. May she feel safe in our arms and even safer in Yours.
And Lord, help me to be the kind of grandparent who reflects Your love—
patient, playful, encouraging, and steady—
so that she always knows she has a safe place in my heart.
Thank You for her laughter, her energy, her hugs, and her future. I place it all in Your hands.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Leabella! Grandpa loves you so much!
