My birthday present

My birthday was Jan 2nd.  It was Sunday we went to church and then I went to our community group meeting.  So we decided to take off to the beach on Monday morning for a 1/2 day.  You know you can just do that kind of thing when you have a vehicle! 🙂

So for my birthday I got to spend the morning with these beautifuls kids.  I sat in one place for about 4 hours and just got to play with Ameyah.  It was pure joy. 

Carmelo got to play volleyball with some friends

Henley got to swim and have fun, he loves the water.

Trey was well….Trey….and just had a great time running, playing, laughing and relaxing

I was able to sit next to Enoch and talk without and interuption, we talked about his up coming visa appointment and how we both knew he was not going to get it 🙂  God had other plans. 

I had a great day with my lovely family.  I needed it and was so blessed to be able to get away for a bit and spend time with them.

These memories will be in my heart forever.

    You deserved it more than almost anyone I know — Lori deserves it equally.

    I’m so glad you have the transportation and are able to spend that kind of time with your family. I hope you do it as often as you can.

    See you soon!

    Your family is lovely and I am so glad you made some time to get away. You are one of the hardest working people I know and you so deserve this. Your boys are getting so big! Miss you and love you!
