"She is a gift that keeps on giving back to all of us.  She is a God's beautiful miracle to me... she never ceases to amaze me and I give thanks daily having this beautiful daughter. Life changes when you have children and even more when you have a daughter. "  Laurie Pace

Today is her birthday and like my other children, I have to celebrate this day on my blog and share it with you. Last year we did a huge surprise party but right now there is too much going on to try and pull anything off like it again!

She grew up between two brothers.  She was a constant defender and protector for both of them and still is today. She loves with all her heart, body and soul.  She is a fierce defender of family. 
Her two daughters are as different as night and day.  One is seven and one just turned one.  They do not look alike or act alike, but what they share is that same love of family and of each other. She is a wonderful mother and wife.  I only worry she does not take care of herself as she should, something so common in women that love so fiercely. 

My favorite picture of the trio as they got older is this last one.  She was a rocking teen with a thirst for life, a keen sense of right and wrong and loved her friends with a similar passion as her family.  
She carries all this forward into her family today.  Everyday brings laughter and happiness and finding the good in the day and in the people you encounter in that day.  I worry with the world as untrustworthy as it has become, that it will be hard to teach her daughters to reach out with compassion safely to help others. She has a different world to grow these daughters in.  God be willing, I will see them grow into beautiful young women that find their way through life with love, compassion and respect for others. 
“Behold, everyone who uses proverbs will use this proverb about you: ‘Like mother, like daughter.’  Ezekiel 16:44

Happy Birthday my sweet girl.
Mom

A Bit of Wonder Contemporary Horse Oil Daily Painting Art by Laurie Justus Pace 24 x 30 x 2 inches of thick buttery oils! Contact me to purchase: Laurie "This is the day that the Lord has made; Let us rejoice and be glad in it". Psalm 118:24 It was a day of celebration yesterday as Lauren Gracen was born. Stacey began her labor around nine in the morning and was ready to push by 12:15, but they held her off while getting things set up. Took four good contractions with multiple pushes and the baby was there! All grandparents accounted for to count the toes and fingers! My admiration is for my daughter and her bravery and calmness despite the tension and newness of what she faced. I was honored to be there as the baby was delivered seeing my granddaughter push out into the light and take her first breathe... and then cry... and that she did. Terry was able to participate and he and Larry helped with pushing and getting Stacey upright for the process and then Terry was hon...

Arrival...Refrigerator?

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2024 Arrival Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   Proverbs 16:3 "Commit to the Lord whtever you do, and he will establish your plans."   Worrisome times laced with prayers.   The world seems like a scary place lately. Praying for everyone affected by the last two hurricanes.  My adventures today were the result of a dead refrigerator. I have loved my Kitchen Aid refrigerator very much. The first one in the 'French Kitchen' look died at 13 months. Hubby wanted the same refrigerator. Well this one made it four years and a few months. I cannot believe appliances are not made to last longer...but wait, is that because they make more money if we have to replace it in 4-5 years?  You replace your mattress at least every 7 years... and your washer dryer, you might get 7 years out of those... The stoves seem to make it closer to 10 years. We are Lowe's customers, and Robert ...

The Marsh... of our lives? Walking with God.

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2024 The Marsh 6 x 12 inches Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   I did two of these paintings about three years ago. They both sold immediately to a Florida Collector. Simple and elegant for a horse painting.  Ephesians 5:1-2 "Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children and walk in love, just as Christ also loved you and gave Himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God as a fragrant aroma."  One of the biggest challenges in walking with God is trusting Him and not trying to out think Him or to do everything your way. It never works.  The Apostle Paul wrote of his own struggles in Romans 7 .  Romans 7: 22-23 “ So I find this law at work: Although I want to do good, evil is right there with me. For in my inner being I delight in God’s law; but I see another law at work in me, waging war against the law of my mind and making me a prisoner of the ...
