It seems hard to believe that today you are celebrating another birthday. It's been 27 years since you made your speedy entrance into the world, crying at the top of your lungs before you were even totally born. From the start you were my sunshine girl, content to sit for hours on end in the playpen as long as your big brother or sister were around so you could watch. I cherished every moment, knowing you would most likely be our last baby and you rewarded me with smiles, smiles and more smiles.
After graduation from High School, you followed your big brother and sister to a little bible school in Texas and it was there when we came for a visit that you hopped out of a truck and introduced us to this cowboy we could hardly understand!
As you said at Christmas, you are being 'southernized'.....your girlies have ribbons and bows, fancy dresses and tights! Who knew that our tomboy had that in her? I wish that we could be there with you today in person, to treat you to a birthday dinner and celebrate together. Thankfully we will be there soon though...so for today have a wonderful Birthday and we will see you soon!

Thanks for the birthday wishes, Mom, and for loving and sacrificing so much for me. We can hardly wait to see you all, just over a week!
Happy Birthday, Jody! I can't help but think about you today as your birthday became important to our family too while you were growing up. Wishing you a wonderful year ahead.
What a sweet post, Doris. We all love Jody and are thankful that the Lord brought her into our family. She is such a good little mommma.....content to be at home with her family (a rarity in today's society). She has truly found her place of contentment. We continually pray for God's blessings on this little "Texas family" so far removed from Canada and South Carolina. Hope you all are doing well.
