"I RACHEL!"

For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb. Psalm 139:13

I am blessed to be the father of two girls -- one who is the wise old age of two. Rachel is a challenge, but she is definitely a delight. With her it is black and white. Happy or sad. Laughing or mad -- and she can be a handful when she doesn't get what she wants. (All those who have or who have had two year olds raise your hands if you know what I'm talking about...) But I love her.

Little girls like to play dress up
, and both of my daughters are no exception. Seeing them do that makes me fall in love with my two little princesses all over again. Sometimes I will ask Rachel if she is a princess, and she will tell me "No." When I ask her what she is, she will announce, "I Rachel!" To which I have no argument!

She knows who she is. So does the Master. I look forward to seeing her announce to her Creator, "I Rachel!" I look forward to hearing Him say to her, "Well done, good and faithful servant."

What more could her daddy ask for?
