Pray for Your Siblings - Day 8

At last, final exams are complete and our internet is cured of all its troubles. It had been broken for a few days, and last week we got it fixed! Thank you for your patience! Let the challenge resume. :) 

My beautiful sister. Isn't she pretty??

14 Things About Caroline

1. My family often jokes that she is "our actress". Although she may not show it in public, she displays around five thousand different facial expressions a day. 

2. She is a very natural athlete - horseback riding, swimming, tennis, ballet, and many other sports come very naturally to her. 

3. She can put a smile on your face, even when in your dullest mood. Essentially, she could make watching paint dry hilarious. 

4. She is a dedicated Little House on the Prairie fan. 

5. She is definitely not a breakfast-food person. If she had to eat Mexican food for the rest of her life she would be one happy camper. 

6. She is a very faithful friend. 

7. She is one of those neat people who can have a great conversation about virtually anything.

8. She offers supportive encouragement when you need it. 

9. She has the strongest competitive streak in our family. 

10. One of her great loves, is horses. Not only is she completely natural in the saddle, but she continually seeks to improve her skill in this area. 

11. She has enormous energy and such a passion for life. 

12. She loves her family very deeply. 

13. She has a strong work ethic and isn't afraid of a challenge...in fact, she lives for challenges. :) 

14. The joy of the Lord radiates through her. She keeps our family going a million miles an hour, and makes every step of the way absolutely wonderful. 

I love you, Carey :) Happy 14th birthday! Thank you for being a great sister and making each day full of life and laughter! 

See if you can list at least five things about each of your siblings. As you list each thing, ask the Lord to fill you with love for your brothers and sisters. Ask Him to give you His love, patience, and wisdom when spending time with them. Siblings add such beauty to life. Cherish them, and never let them go!
