Happy Birthday Katie! You are a special woman of God.
I love your new blog layout! How did you do that?
And I can't believe Katie is 17! That makes ME feel old! What a precious family you have! Lord willing, we will see you all face to face sometime soon . .
Dear Katie, Happy 17th Birthday, It has been my honor to have known you since you were minutes old. I was the first to hold you after your mama & Papa in the hospital. When you were a little shaver you were quite the "stemwinder" and if you came to my apartment home I had to watch you like a hawk as you dearly LOVED to get into things. Now I know it was just your inquisitive mind at work. You are BEAUTIFUL inside and out and your have many gifts both physical and spiritual. You are very loving and kind, you have compassion, mercy and the gifts of helps and giving. You are very loyal to friends and family. You are a hard worker and not a lazy bone in your body. You always give me good health advice and it is always wise. How do you do that at such a young age? You love the Lord & I pray all the time you stay close to Him all your life and he will BLESS YOU. I could go on and on about the love and admiration I have for you and it was great having Birthday lunch with you today!! I LOVE YOU MORE THAN WORDS CAN SAY, Gma Mather
Thank you for your beautiful comments Dear Ones!! I read them to Katie and they brought her joy (me too)! BIG HUGS, Jax

Jax,
How did a young woman, such as yourself have such an old child? You must have been 13 when she was born.
How wonderful to have all those loving thoughts sent your way Katie. You must be doing something right.
Sounds like you are a blessing to your family.
