Thank you

Thanks to all who sent me a birthday card. I still look forward to seeing that envelope in the mailbox that says "Hannah Jones" without seeing "Statement Enclosed" on it. Ha Ha! It makes my day even more special.

Savannah & Ridge's nanny started today in preparation for my return to work on Monday. It was & still is very difficult for me although she is very good. Her last family even had infant twin girls.

Why do they have to be so darn cute now that I have to leave for so much of the day?
As many of you know Kyle's confirmation was on Mother's day, along with 13 others. They met for 30 weeks for an hour. Each wrote their Statements of Faith and they were in the bulliten. I'd like to share Kyle's with you. I didn't ask permission to share.
"I believe in God, the creator, father of all living creatures. I believe in the unconditional love of our Lord God, who created us equally. I believe in the patience and forgiveness of God. I believe in Jesus Christ, son of God. I believe that he gave his life to save us from our sins. I believe that he healed the sick and wounded, taught the word of God, and rose from the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit who lives in all of us. I believe that the Spirit brings us to our calling and helps us make the right decisions. I believe that the church is a place of worship and a place to help renew our faith in God. I believe the church is a sanctuary from the less important matters of the outside world." I was very proud of him and just wanted to share.

Happy Birthday to all. I finally got out cards on Thursday, some belated some not. I've gotten so back about taking care of these details. I went to see Dad and Joan yesterday and they, Bertha & I went to dinner. We had a nice visit. I told Joan I was glad to see her back on track with therapy. The following is a copy of an email from Chris.

Not much really goin' on here. Fixin' to go to the range and shoot around 10 bullets and then there's nothing left to do. We were issued the new vest the other day and sat through a couple of classes. We're gonna' be here (Kuwait) longer than planned because they're not ready to receive us up north yet. So, I will get a chance to ride a camel some time next week and catch a free rock concert, making Chris and Michelle envious (they both like that band). Might as well while I can down here because I'll miss all those kind of things up there with my working night shift. Got up around 5:30 this morning and ran 2 miles. It was probably "ONLY" in the 80's or 90's then. Went to breakfast and to contemporary chapel service. Was happy, got to help serve communion this morning. Asked the chaplain if he needed any help this evening at traditional service. I was asked to help sing, but I had something that disagreed with me at dinner and wasn't able to make it.Wanted to call Amber tonight to tell her happy birthday, but there's no military installation near them and wasn't able to use my (figured out afterwards) expired prepaid card. I'm at a loss not being able to use hotmail, because it 's got all my e-mail addresses. Can ya pass this on to Howie and someone tell Amber "Happy Birthday" from me?Not much more to tell. Love y'all.LoveBoo boo

Me again, if you could email Chris he would then have your email address. I know he'd like hearing from anyone. Thanks.

Happy Birthday, Cat

Happy Birthday to my last born today. She is celebrating with Hubby and Babies and maybe others.

Happy Birthday also to "Squirrel" who I believe turns 100 today.
