I think somebody loves me! Rick left a trail of balloons going up the stairs and then on the back of my chair at the kitchen table (this is a family tradition). And he left a jump rope (we had been joking around about how much fun a jump rope would be) and a pink "Birthday Girl" ribbon. I have a strawberry cheesecake for my birthday cake (another tradition :))
One week until moving day. Mom is coming tomorrow to help with the last minute packing. She is going to help with Jacob while we move since it will probably be rather busy around here.
What a fantastic birthday this has been! Mom called this morning, then Memaw called and sang "Happy Birthday". Beth called, then Papa, then Dad. I feel so loved.
We are having dinner at Cracker Barrel.
What a good day. Birthdays are a great reminder that people are thinking about you and care for you!

About Me
My Family
The inspiration behind everything that I do, my family is so precious to me!
Rick
Our Leader, Protecter, and Provider, my wonderful husband is the most amazing man I have ever met. He is a loving example to our boys of just what a husband should be.
Melly Elizabeth
Wife, Mommy and Homemaker...these are the labels that describe what I do. I couldn't imagine wanting to be anything other than these things. I love being here in my home, taking care of my family and creating a warm and comfortable place for my husband to come home to each day.
Jacob
Intellegent, charming, and witty, Jacob keeps life interesting around our house. Always full of questions and insight, he is never short of words! He relishes his role as "oldest brother" and loves to be my helper.
Joshua
The "Bear". Energetic, rambunctious, and full of all things "boy", Joshua is our little wild bear! He is also one of the sweetest people that I have ever met. Full of hugs and kisses, it is amazing to see the contrast between his rough and tumble ways and his gentle kindness.
Joseph
Joseph is such a joy! His smile lights up the room, and his playful expressions can't help but be endearing. He finds humor in nearly everything. He looks up to his older brothers and tries to keep up with them at every turn.
James
James is my adorable, precious, rambunctious little one! Always eager to be a helper, highly affectionate, and a perfectionist like his Mama, he's the sunshine of my day!
John David
Our newest little addition, John David is such a blessing! He already looks up to his brothers, and seems to be in a hurry to join in their fun. We love him so much, and thank God for sending this darling child into our lives!
