Happy Birthday!

Matt, I believe, is planning to spend this important and auspicious day working. It seems to be one of those years where all our birthdays fall on inconvenient work days. However, his oldest child has learned to play 'Here we go, up the road, to a birthday party' on the piano for him, so that should be Very Exciting.

Also, my dad is traveling back to Africa today and we would very much appreciate prayers for his safe travel. He'll be on three separate airplanes.

I am about to slowly and carefully rise from this spot and pack our lunch for school today. I was up most of the night feeling laborish. I am very thankful that its eased off but I'm intending to move very slowly today and try to keep everything in place.

Of course! Consider the left wing covered.

Wow! how do they separate him and decide which parts go on which airplane and then put him back together after they all get to where he is going?

Happy Birthday Matt. We are hoping you get a celebration sometime in the near future! My feeling is that birthdays should take precedence over EVERYTHING else, but God might not agree!!!

We love you lots and are so proud of you!
Love, Mom and Dad
