Embracing Wisdom from Ella as she turns Sweet Sixteen

I am not quite sure how my daughter Ella turned sixteen yesterday.

🥹I have a tears in my eyes as I write this.

I am always amazed that I can go right back to the day she was born. For those of you who don’t know, Ella was almost 6 weeks early. My sweet girl tells me that she couldn’t wait to be with her family.

✍I know that we teach our children a lot every day, but Ella has also taught me so much from the very beginning. Ella is one of my greatest teachers. Seth and I look at each other sometimes with astonishment because we can’t believe the wise things that come out of her mouth.

We tell Ella that she is an old soul. Every year she gets better, and we love watching her grow into a beautiful, smart, kind, talented teenager.

I want to share with Ella and all of you some important lessons that Ella has taught me over the years.

🌱I look forward to continuing to learn and grow with Ella in many years to come.

↪️Join me tonight at 9 PM as I discuss these lessons, and the way Ella’s wisdom, kindness, and old-soul perspective continue to amaze us. See you then!
