Orders:
Joel got his orders for another postal school. We’ll be at Fort Jackson for three more weeks.
Birthdays:
Jeremiah turns five on Saturday. He wants to have a party with kids… we don’t know any children in South Carolina. His grand scheme: Take a cake to the play ground and share it with any kids that show up.
My birthday is the following Saturday. We’re going to Charleston, SC. The kids and I have never seen the ocean, so we’re really excited. We’ve got tickets to a baseball game and a 50 dollar gift card for the Charleston Crab House. I probably couldn’t be more excited. Free seafood. Minor League Baseball. The Ocean… A great way to turn 29.
Kitty Cat:
Sarah still spends much of her day pretending to be a feline. She not only meows… she hisses. I told her all I want for my birthday is a whole day with my little girl and not a kitty cat. She agreed to that but says her hands will still be baby kitty cats.
Bible In 90 Days
How about The Old Testament In 90 Days? Since moving to this new room, I’ve had a hard time getting all of that Bible reading done each day. I’ll finish the OT on day 90. I think I’ll read the New Testament in 90 days too. I’d like to spend more time studying it, and I need time to read other books before my ministerial credentials test in May.
I kind of feel like I’ve failed. I really enjoyed getting the big picture by reading so much so quickly. I’ll have to try again sometime.
Just praise the Lord that Jeremiah doesn’t bark and growl. You could have major fights and the fur would be flying.

Okay, I realize that you are trying to break Sarah of being a kitty cat, but I have to admit, I find her entire feline philosophy hysterically funny. I would love to see her hands being baby kitty cats!!!
Oh, and I think Jeremiah has a brilliant idea for his party!
Happy birthday to you, Amy Jo!

Come see us in Springfield when we get back. I’m sure Sarah’s baby kitty cats[hands] would LOVE to play with Nicole kitty cats.
I don’t really mind the hand thing anymore. It’s pretty creative and she doesn’t have to take toys with her anywhere. Even on an 18 hour cross-country drive all she needs is her meowing little hands.

I like that if you meow she comes running to you. It is a great way to keep her from running off. Jeremiah’s idea is a good one.
