Tis the Season.....of Birthdays

It has been a very very long time since I have recorded any of our family events. I am prompted to get back at it by some recent developments here at home...but that will come later. Right now in our household it is birthday season.
Davie Anne turned 7 in February. She remains a delightful girl who is according to her teacher, "a model student". Davie has had a big year and has decided to give competitive gymnastics a try. We are blessed with our "Shorty" girl.
Sarah,our precious 1st born turned 23 in March. Her life as an old married woman seems to suit her well. Every time I talk to her she is trying a new recipe! We are so proud of our girl and celebrate her happiness. We couldn't ask for a sweeter daughter!
The next birthday is Catherine's. She turned 14 this month. It has been a good year for her. I am thrilled with her spiritual and emotional development. We aren't through the hard years yet, but we are well on our way. So blessed to be Cat Jo's mom.
Eliana celebrated her 4th birthday today. What a hoot that girl is! Sarah called to wish her a happy birthday yesterday and said, "oh, you are getting so big" to which Ellie said in her precious way of talking, "no, I dut da dame." (translation: just the same) If I could just bottle her and sell her cute self...I'd be rich!
Matt and Chris celebrate their birthdays in May...whew! 6 birthdays in 4 months is a lot of celebrating!!! Hope you have lots to celebrate in your world.
Much love,
Jackie Sue
