**Sorry this wasn't posted on May 28...pretend it was.
Today, Jboy turns 4. He's been counting down for the last 10 days, letting us know each morning how many days until his birthday. Today, he keeps asking everyone to tell him happy birthday and to pray for him before meals because it's his birthday. He came downstairs this morning to find an over the door basketball hoop from Daddy and Mommy and a play tool bench from Nana and Papaw. Daddy had also found Jboy a small Maasai knife (which I'm not sure what he will do with?!?!). He requested biscuits for breakfast and chicken fried chicken w/ gravy and rice for dinner. Yesterday, we had house church with our team and celebrated with cake after lunch for J. Tonight, we will have pecan pie for dessert (again, his request).
