For my daughter

This little gift from God turns 4 September 14th.
I pray today for the young man who could be her future spouse.
I pray his parents or guardians will have strong convictions
- and if they don't, I pray he will.

I pray she will be spared hurt from young men who
misuse and abuse young women while imagining
such behavior proves 'manhood'. It does nothing of the sort.

This little girl deserves to be honored, respected,
cherished.

EVERY little girl deserves that much.

You fathers or fathers-to-be join me in drilling this into our sons.
A man is respectful toward all women - most especially toward the women in his life.
Amen!

Happy Birthday my daughter, Papa loves you!
