VERY HAPPY BIRTHDAY


Logan, Poppy and I are bringing you a Birthday Gift
when we come to visit you for Thanksgiving .  Can you guess what it is?

I am sending you a poem to learn.  It is one of my favorite poems, so I hope that you will like it too.  I hope your mother will read it to you, tell you about it and help you memorize it.  I will help you when I come.

The Crocodile
by
Lewis Carroll

How doth the little crocodile
                                       improve his shining tail,
                              And pour the water of the Nile 
                                       on every shining scale?

                              How cheerfully he seems to grin,
                                       How neatly spreads his claws, 
                              And welcomes little fishes in,
                                        With gently smiling jaws! 
                                        
WE LOVE YOU LOGAN!!!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KAREN........OCTOBER 29, 2014



   Happy Birthday Karen

                                         Paige 5 Years Old





John and Claire
Now 9 Months Old




This family is now Complete
A Gift







Paige 
Now 6 years old and in the 1st Grade




Karen is first and formost a wife and mother.  Family is her highest priority.  For 5 1/2 years, she mothered Paige, taught school, and supported her husband, Roy.  Today she is the mother of not only Paige, but twins, Claire Ellis and John Patrick.  
Taking care of these babies was a 24/7 endeavor for many months. The babies are now eating, sleeping, and playing on a more predictable schedule.  Karen is teaching online education classes and running or walking with the babies twice daily.  She takes Paige to tennis and dance lessons twice a week....babies in tow. She cooks dinner nightly and decorates her home according to the season.  She drives 20 miles to the nearest grocery store once a week at night while Roy stays home with their three children.
Life can be crazy and wonderful at the same time.  Being a mother 
is the most important and demanding role a woman will ever have.
Karen is becoming a Pro

 Look well to the ways of your household, .....and your children will rise up and call you blessed.  Proverbs, 31

Karen, Poppy and I love you!  We are happy that you have the family you so desired.  

HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY
