21 Today!
I thought I would just quickly add a few pictures from the beach yesterday (of the birthday girl in her early birthday pressie hat) for you to take a peek at.
She woke up very tired today after only a TWO hour sleep last night... probably because she was excited about her birthday. She is having a quick snooze right now before we head off to celebrate at the Aquarium later.... (I will no doubt have a post on that one coming up soon)
I'm feeling like it's a miracle that our precious girl is still here with us all these years later...(see Heni's story.... part 1 here, part 2 here, part 3 here & part 4 here) and also feeling blessed to be celebrating with all the family together today... (reunited for a short while after my eldest son and daughter in law moved to America to live last year)
Gotta go now... but just wanted to wish our gorgeous young lady the very best of birthdays today...
See you all soon

ReplyDeleteI can't wait until you see part 2 of your and your family's project.
Did you have an awesome time at the beach and the aquarium?

And, yes, tent-sleeping is awesome.
Thanks Adelaide. Heni liked all the fish at the aquarium and loved the beach.... Just enjoys the fresh sea air I think. Part two is coming this Friday!!

DeleteJade,
ReplyDeleteYou are my hero. the strength of Christ in you is so evident by the 21+ years of steadfastedness and determination to love and help you sweet girl. You, my friend, are a Mama warrior.

You are so kind Lori. I don't often feel like a mamma warrior but I guess I have fought a lot on her behalf over the years. I'm sure you know exactly what that's like too. Sending virtual hugs into cyber space back your way too.
DeleteHappy birthday, sweet girl - enJOY your day!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much June. I'll be passing on you birthday wishes to Heni X
