Happy Birthday, Joseph!


Five years ago, Raechel came very close to getting a baby brother for her birthday. We were still more than a week from his due date, but he was considerate enough to come just a bit early. He was the first of our babies to be "caught" by his daddy; this despite the fact that he was the last of ours (so far, God willing) to be born at a hospital. That just goes to show there are still a few OB's out there that understand they should have a supporting role in the delivery room. Today, please offer prayers for Jo-Jo; that God will bless him with health in the coming year, and that his Guardian Angel will be quick enough to keep him safe and sound!

On the birthday menu today is pizza, breadsticks, salad, and a chocolate chip cookie cake. My sourdough is really getting a work-out the last few days! Everybody agreed that Raechel's cake was yummy. Well, okay... the words they actually used were "different" and "interesting", but I know they meant yummy! My mistake was using the sourdough as a base, rather than as a levening. I'm glad I get another chance to try another cake today.

God bless!
