I was lying in bed this morning and it dawned on me that I had not been posting about my family on their birthdays over the past few months. I am not sure how I let that happen. Aside from my salvation, family is truly the biggest blessing that the Lord has given me. I am going to spend the next few days catching up!
I do not remember a time when Kim was not my best friend. She knows me inside and out and still likes me! :0) I remember fighting over who got the shower first in the morning and who had to wash the dishes, but never a time when we weren't close. We shared many of the same friends in high school and did not let college moves keep us apart. When I was a starving camp counselor making $80 per week, she was a starving new teacher. She scraped her pennies together and paid off my wedding dress as a surprise. To this day, she is quick to send a cheerful package. She does mock me from time to time with pictures of Shell Island and dolphin encounters, but I can take it. Kim, your 40th birthday came on May 6th. You said that this will be your best year yet. I have a feeling that it will. You are one of the biggest blessings that the Lord has given me and I don't know where I would be without you.

Gift #314- Panama City Love
Just checked the mail and had an awesome package waiting! 8 cans of boiled peanuts! (3 of them had my name on them and I am not sharing!) Harry and David's Macadamia Moose Munch, lollipops, a birthday present and some sweet little clothes for baby girl! We are in the thick of rainy season here in Iwakuni, but a package from home sure did make things brighter! Thank you Dad and Ms. Diane!
Within 2 minutes of tearing open the package!
Now all we need is an Avery!
