Well, howdy Partner…. IT’S YOUR BIRTHDAY!!!

Can anybody guess what today is??? You guessed it! It’s Abel’s birthday{also known as Mr. Happy as he shines the Love of Christ that dwells within in his cheerful disposition}!! Yep, Abel, the handsomest, roughest, toughest 8 year-old this side of the Rio Grande… seriously! Well, actually I think he is the handsomest 8 year-old on the face of the earth but I’m a bit partial{yes, you heard it *8 years-old*}!! ;) But please don’t let his rough, tough exterior fool you. Beneath all that muscle is the happiest, friendliest, most lovable guy y’all will ever meet and he has the biggest brownest eyes that will melt the hardest of hearts{eeek! Sorry Abel, I just couldn’t help it!}
Abel’s favorite activity? Well, among many, protecting the women, children, & chickens from bandits with his handy BB gun,  riding his bike, and making pb&j wraps{I have yet to have one but I hear they are quite tasty!} Future plans you ask? To ride west on his trusty mustang in search of gold, then settle down with a little lady on a llama ranch ;), and raise a dozen & a half little cowboys of his own. But that’s far far in the future!! ;) For now he will settle for having a fantastic birthday!! Sounds like a wonderful plan to me!! :)

Happy Happy Birthday, Abel! It is a blessing to be your sister!! May your belly never grumble, May your heart never ache. May your horse never stumble, May your cinch never break. ;)

“The Lord bless thee, and keep thee:
The Lord make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee:
The Lord lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace.”
Numbers 6:24-26

Side note: Had too much fun taking his birthday pictures that I couldn’t narrow down my selection! :)

This picture was requested by the birthday boy. Doesn’t he look suave? ;)

“Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.
But his delight is in the law of the Lord; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.
And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper….”
Psalm 1
