Once Upon A Princess

Once upon a time there was a beautiful little girl whose love of life and all things wonderful SHONE out of her eyes like RAYS of sunlight.

She grew up playing with family and friends who deeply love her, let her eat mangos off the village mango tree, taught her how to wash, say please and thank-you, taught her how to pray, and much much more.
Like all princeses, there usually is a hard time in her life...no, she was not ever locked up in a castle, or made to do all the chores, or swept away by an evil witch....but sadness did enter her life.

Through it all she remained "joyfull" deep in her being. All who saw her would say "she is Delightful!"

One day a wonderful woman in a big SUV came to her village and asked the people if there was anyway she could assist the princess with her sadness.

They agreed that it would be best for the princess to have a chance to grow up in a place where she could become the BEST Princess she could be!
The princess got to live with the wonderful lady, who took her to meet lots of prince's and princesses who were alot like her.

At this new place she got to go to school, sing songs, learn LOTS and LOTS of Bible verses, learn how to do chores as a team, pray and so much much more!
A time came when the wonderful lady told the princess that she had found a very special place where she could grow up to be a Beautiful Woman and become the BEST Princess she could be.

So this delightful princess left the wonderful lady's house and traveled to a far far away place...where most things were new to her. Her heart was still full of Joy, but some concern about her prince and princess friends she was leaving behind in the land of Ghana. To help her, she chooses to pray for ALL of them ALL of the time.

Upon her arrival to her new land, one day after entering she went to a church. When she turned around...much to her delight, her eyes saw a WONDERFUL thing....1 prince and 3 princess's that she knew from her land of Ghana....SQUEALLS of DELIGHT, jumping and lots of hugging happened in a VERY good moment for her heart.
(maybe a small bit of sadness was starting to leave her heart)

To her surprise she found out that two of the princesses were having a GREAT CELEBRATION at their castles to celebrate their Birthdays...and could she come!
YES!!!
So off to the land of all things new....BIG fancy dresses, tights, shiny shoes, pink finger nails and crowns.....She was beautiful inside and OUT! She felt like a QUEEN!
As she entered the castle she was greeted by another wonderful lady who had received the two birthday princesses from the land of Ghana about 7 months before.
It was a reunion of great love and hugs!

The life of this princess is PRICELESS...beyond measure, her heart and love for people is amazing....she is all she WAS, all she is and wonderfully transforming into the BEST PRIINCESS she can be!!!
Lovely!
This new mommy and family are delighted to have the opportunity to see this princess BLOOM and continue to grow!
Our hearts are humbled by her hearts BEAUTY!!!
WE LOVE YOU PRINCESS VICTORIA!

Absolutely precious!

It was such a blessing to meet Princess Victoria and Sir John (The Galant Knight), they have amazing hearts and fun personalities. I can see why God chose them to be part of the Blaske Bunch. It is especially touching to see the entire family delight in all of the new learning experiences, quirks, and cultural differences. Praise God!

What an amazing way of putting down the story that has been unfolding in her life! I hope that you make a copy of it and keep it to give to her. She may or may not know what to do with it now but I'm sure that there will be a time when she will.
Praise God from whom all blessing flow. And they are surely flowing on the Blaske family.
