Happy Birthday, Elena!

Elena turned 5 years old today...wow, where has the time gone!  She is growing up to be a fun sweet little girl.  She has been counting the days to her birthday and really had a good day.  Rosemary came from Sabga along with Abby and Rebekah for church, Bible Study, and birthday fun today. 
Our sweet little grown-up five year old! 
We all loved the cards that the Needhams sent for Elena.  They were homemade cards with old pictures of Elena on them!  She loved it!! 
The jello-cake was awesome! 
Abby, Chloe, Rosemary, Elena, Theresa, Rebekah, and Abby

I wanted to post these tonight, since I'll be away tomorrow.  Pray for a long flight to the Far North region of Cameroon tomorrow and then the return trip on Tuesday.  Tom and I are flying the two planes to transport missionary cargo up and bring a missionary family back down.

Happy Birthday Elena!!! I most certainly agree with your daddy in his comments......you have grown so much and are such a sweet little girl and such a helper to your mommy. Grandad and I miss you and can't wait to see you again. Did you get the present we sent? I wish we could have brought it ourselves and had a piece of your cake!! So pretend it is us and have your daddy and mommy give you 5 kisses and hugs from us!! Love, Grammie and Grandad
