Happy Birthdays

We have had a fun summer full of birthdays! Mal celebrated her 4th birthday in June. Reece and Ryan turned ONE in July along with my Grandpa turning 95. And sweet Abby turned 6 today!! YIKES!! I can't believe any of them. Sweet Abby! You can't really be SIX! You are just like your mommy. Precious and calm. You will be talented like her too with all the art you love to do. I love that you are a girly girl! We spoiled you rotten as a baby-you had no choice but to love pink! You are going to be a good and faithful friend. I love how you pray so diligently for others. I can't believe you are going to first grade.
I love how Mallory is such a little stinker. She can light up a room with her giggles and can warm your heart in an instant-IF she wants to. If not - too bad - maybe another day but for some reason I just love that about her. I love the way she loves Brad. She may not want to give anyone else a hug that day but she always has one for Brad. She absolutely adores him. She has the best gymnast body already. She is pure sculpted muscle and Laura and I love that she has a beautiful chin! (Mainly b/c we don't have chins-long family trait there!) Happy Birthday Mal-Mal! MeMe Loves You and can't wait to watch you grow and do wonderful things.

Oh little Reecey and Ryan! One year already??? How quickly it has gone. You are the lights of our family. Our daily reminder that God answers prayer and that He is ever faithful. I love you two for so many reasons too. Ryan-your little temper crack me up. I love that you are a mommas boy and that you LOVE your Milk-just like your Tia Meme. Reecey, I love that you are so laid back and lighthearted. This will be such a virtue for you in the future. I love that you are both boys-you have strong men in your lives to guide your way. I love that you both wave your little hands to a spanish song none of us can really sing. I am so thankful that God blessed our whole family with you two.
Lastly, our awesome grandpa, Daddy Bill, turned 95 in July. He is incredible. I know I have posted before but he still walks everyday, has a garden, LOVES babies, and is the best back-tickler ever. He has a calm gentle spirit about him that I long to possess one day. He is my inspiration for taking care of myself so I can live a long life like he has.

Well, this should wrap up my postings for a while. Three in one night is pretty good-We have more birthdays coming up this month. Emily (another niece), Janis my motherinlaw, and myself all have birthdays in August! I am glad Allie's next baby is due in the winter-we gotta spread these birthdays out! Have a great weekend.
