HAPPY BIRTHDAY, NATHAN!
The end product of Abigail's secret baking project: a Carrot Cake Cheesecake!
Lots of thought...always put into the gift giving!
Esther and Joseph made a card for their daddy using Joseph's hand.
Nathan had an interesting start to his birthday. They were on the road for juggling performances.
Not long into the morning yesterday Nathan had to change a tire on their RV. His next encounter was one of the pull outs where they store the juggling equipment on the side of the RV. Nathan cracked his head on it and sported a big bandaid on his forehead for part of the day. They got home in time to go to church for the AWANA end of the year program. When they got home, from church, a time was finally found to actually celebrate with cake and gifts. A rather full and busy day.
My thoughts on the day? Well, I KNOW I felt a lot better yesterday than I did 47 years ago when I had Nathan in the middle of the night. I was in the hospital for an acute kidney infection and had been spiking a 105° temperature for most of May 18th. Nathan decided that it was too hot in the
oven and arrived very quickly in the wee hours of the morning on May 19th...neither the doctor nor Woody made it to the hospital before he was born...and, they were less than 20min. away. He was born three weeks early. They said that he was "immature" rather than "premature." But back then when a baby was in ICU the mommy and daddy just looked through the window at the baby. We never touched him till he was six-days-old...the day he came home from the hospital. How "things" have changed these days!
