Happy (belated) birthday, Teti! We wanted to wait to post your Happy Birthday until we got pictures celebrating with you!! We were so excited all weekend to give you the presents and the cards we picked out on our very own! Do you like your flauxers? They stay pretty and they don't die. They're better than real flowers. When Daddy buys Mommy flowers they die and that makes us sad, we go for flauxers!
Teti - for your birthday Mommy is making a donation to her favorite charity called World Vision. We are actually combining your gift with Uncle Dan's and will be able to buy a family a Goat and 2 Chickens! You know that makes you smile! A goat and a pair of chickens will provide a steady supply of milk, eggs, meat - and even poopy to help a family grow crops! We take for granted how much we have but to think what an impact somewhere else in the world we can make by donating a goat and 2 chickens! Click the link and read about it!
When Mommy and Uncle Dan were little they would watch the commercials about the "starving kids in Africa" and Mommy pledged that when she was older she would give "just a dollar a day" to help a child on the other side of the world - and in 2013 we are going to honor that commitment. Each one of us is going to sponsor a child our age in another part of the world. We will share their names with you when we get them and we would ask that you pray with us on our journey of sponsorship.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TETI! We love you so very, very, VERY much!!
Love,
Lilly, Anna and Jack
