"He shall feed his flock like a shepherd: he shall gather the lambs with his arm,
and carry them close to his heart, and shall gently lead those that are with young." Isaiah 40:11

Rachel's Birthday!!

Rachel's birthday day was an 'off' day for her. She seemed ill at ease and unhappy for most of the day.  And when 6:30 rolled around, we thought she might even go back to sleep and miss her own party.  But we brought her down to the kitchen to meet the guests and she suddenly perked up!! I took tons of pictures.  Here are some of them. More to follow later....

Oh, and before I forget - we weighed Rachel and she is now a whopping 8 lbs and 4 1/2 ounces!!! We thought she had been gaining some weight.

The Cake.....isn't it amazing?  The sheep was made from rice crispie squares and the cake was layers of strawberry and chocolate.  Thank-you Joe!!!
