Birthday Week

 Three of our youngest four children have their birthdays over the course of one week in August.

 These ladies celebrate 4 days apart.
Tori gave this wonderful birthday sash and tiara to Miss J. for her day and her sister was able to use it for her Sweet Sixteen!


Scented lotions and soaps are always a big hit and made a great gift from Tori to Natalie. Gifts are downplayed in this house.They are not expected and there is NO obligation to provide one. Less is definitely more in my book. However, some people really like to show their love by giving a well chosen gift and that gesture is always appreciated.
 




Larry and I give a modest gift of money and  John picked out a Star Wars Lego set with his. He is thoroughly enjoying it.

 Each birthday child (and even a birthday adult)  enjoys being remembered in a special way, whether that be by a call, a card, a visit, a message, a gift, a thought or a prayer. Happy Birthday, kids! Wishing you all a happy, healthy year.
