Dear Lord, I know that Your Word does not return void and I'm believing great things for my daughter today:1. Let her learn early in life that to obey You, God, is the best way to the life her heart truly desires (1 Samuel 15:22).2. May she find comfort in Your ability, God, to reach her, hold her and rescue her (2 Samuel 22:17-18).3. Let her find confidence in You, God, even when hard times come and she doesn't know what to do, by keeping her eyes fixed on You (2 Chronicles 20:12).4. May she keep herself under control and not give full vent to people and situations that anger her (Proverbs 29:11).5. Let her walk in the security of Your assigned worth to her. Give her a strong work ethic and health to accomplish all her tasks. Give her a heart that desires to extend her hand to those in need. Protect her for the right husband, a man of respect and godly honor. And let her be a woman of joy and laughter whose Christ-centered character is what makes her most beautiful (Proverbs 31). May we both grow in our relationship with You. In Jesus' Name, Amen. (by Lysa TerKeurst, Encouragement for Today)

Elements in nature are beautiful and wondrous, so why not pay homage to the natural world by giving your daughter a nature-inspired nickname? If she is as pretty as a flower, as bright as the sun, or as sweet and soft as a willow, then nature nicknames for daughters are perfect options to choose from.
Keep in mind that while staying in touch with your son/daughter while they are abroad is important, it is also important to encourage them to step out of their comfort zone and fully immerse themselves in their study and life abroad. Too much "home" communication can sometimes hinder the student's experience abroad because it is almost like the student never left. Study abroad and the experiences students have abroad allow them to grow and develop wonderful character traits and skills. These traits and skills develop most when students are fully immersed and focused on their study abroad. Discussing a 'communication plan' with your son/daughter will allow your family to determine the communication expectations for everyone.

With a degree of artistic instinct the lady divined her step-daughter'sthoughts. "You had better study your part," she said, rising. "And,besides, I want you to trim my lace overdress with fresh ribbons; youwill have too much to do to-morrow to attend to it."
"Stay where you are!" she said. "You must not disturb papa now; we arejust going to the theatre. My hat and wrap, Johanna, and my gloves; bequick, be quick!" And beginning to sing 'Joyous and sorrowing,' with alanguishing expression she took from her step-daughter the articlesbrought to her and left the room.
Here there was a trying leave-taking. When Johanna had the vehiclestopped upon the bridge, Lisbeth clung about her neck, and would notrelease her. Her sister's assurance that she should soon come toTannhagen, and her step-father's promise that she should dance in awhite dress with golden stars, were both needed to pacify her. And thenHelena pressed her handkerchief to her tearless eyes, embraced herstep-daughter, and over her shoulder breathed in plaintive accents theassurance that it was long, long since she had enjoyed anything so muchas seeing her dear, dear Johanna again. Finally Batti, who had sprungout of the coach to assist her to alight, took her hand in both his."Farewell!" he cried, with the expression of child-like good humourwhich well became his eager face. "You must not think that I speak wordsof mere formality when I say that I am really yours to command. If I canever serve you, or assist you in any way, curse me if it will not giveme the greatest pleasure. I pray you to believe me."
"You do not understand me," he went on, after a pause. "Let me tell youa short story. A few years ago my father adopted a poor orphan, a girlsixteen years old, the daughter of a distant relative. Sara wasbeautiful and good. She soon occupied my heart and thoughts. I was,however, not free. We Jews, like the children of princes and ofpeasants, are betrothed by the mutual agreement of heads of families. Mybetrothed, who loved another, was bolder than I, and afterward marriedthe man of her choice. But at this time I felt myself fettered by what Imight call the bashful sense of filial piety, which causes so many of myrace to cleave outwardly to traditions which they have really outlived.Only a Jew can feel and understand this. I controlled myself with all myforce, and I do not think that I ever betrayed myself, that Sara eversuspected how happy and how miserable she made me. She was not onlyworthy of love, she craved love. One day a dashing young soldier came tovisit his family, whose estates were in our neighbourhood. He constantlyhad money-transactions with my father. Chance brought him into contactwith Sara. How shall I tell the rest? She found favour in his eyes. Andwhy not? She was a poor Jewish girl; he might trifle with her as hechose; it involved no responsibility for him. The next time I paid avisit at my home I soon saw how matters stood. I saw that my poor Sarawas lost. But I struggled against this conviction; at least I would makean attempt to rescue one so dear to me. I thrust myself into herconfidence with fire and sword. I left her no illusions with regard tothe man to whom she was ready to sacrifice all, perhaps had alreadysacrificed all. I had controlled my love; I gave my jealousy free play.Sara's despair wrung my heart, but I thought I was doing right. Then,with my consent, she had an interview with the scoundrel. On the eveningof the same day she was taken drowned from the canal which runs at thefoot of my father's garden. The neighbours said she must have fallen inwhile getting water, which she always did herself when she was wateringher flowers; my father believed this, and I would gladly have believedit. But upon my writing-table I found a slip of paper, upon which shehad written in scarcely-legible characters, 'You are right.' I need nottell you the man's name to explain my interest in you. And now, if youplease, we will never speak of this again." 2ff7e9595c
