I have such a heart for my senior girls. They’re in a stage of life where the norms they’ve known thus far are on the verge of changing; where they're going to embark on new, exciting, and nerve-wracking journeys; and where they’ll take their first big steps in the direction of their passions. It can feel like things are a bit out of control, but my senior girls always seem to be ready to face the changes head-on with bravery and excitement.

Maddie is no exception. She's one of the most vibrant people I’ve ever met. She has a spirit of kindness and love, and though I only spent a short amount of time with her, I can tell you this... she is the same inwardly as she is in front of the camera: energetic, brilliant, and radiant.

Maddie, thanks for letting me play a small role in the experience of your senior year! You are so full of life, and I pray that that quality stays with you throughout your last year of high school and into your adult life. I can’t wait to see what amazing path God leads you to. You’re going to do amazing things! <3

*Do small things with great love*
