My willful Willow and fierce Faith can also be very sweet sisters when the mood takes them.

For International Day of the Girl Child (October 11th), themed “With Her: A Skilled Girl Force”, UN Women are asking us to “stand with girls everywhere as they inspire, innovate and take charge of their own future”.

Willow is definitely a girl who knows what she wants, and what she doesn’t, and while that sometimes means she’s a bit of a bulldozer, most of the time she’s an excellent hurdler of life’s little obstacles.

Even at such an early age Faith is showing such great determination.  She may have to try a little harder than m

ost to meet her milestones but she also knows how to celebrate them all the more when she reaches them too.

The future is theirs.  (And their brother’s too).
