Meredith Ann Happy Happy Birthday! we love you so much! we are so thankful for you. we are so thankful we get to live life and grow up with you. you guys know that liz and i often say that meredith and lainey interact with each other more like sisters than cousins. they can go fist to cuffs with each other pretty fast but at the sametime will also defend each other and favor each other infront of most anyone. i am so thankful to have our children growing up so close to one another. and know millie and beau and max and soon to be baby girl billingsley will only make our times together sweeter and sweeter. one of our favorite recent stories of our 3rd year old cousin will tell you several of the things we love about dear meredith which i know you guys do too. my neighbor across the street, who we have a precious relationship with....we've over the last several years been able to share the saving grace of Jesus with her. its been fun to see GOd continue to give us favor with her and continue to see signs of her heart softening to the love of God. she loves on my kids so well and we really adore her. one afternoon recently she was over at our house and had foot surgery a week before. she was still having some pain and so i asked her if we could pray for her. i prayed and then my precious niece joined right into pray for patti too. patti was so incredibly touched by meredith's childlike faith. meredith prayed quite a lengthy little prayer and her confidence voiced was quite clear that, "my Jesus wants to heal you!" Jesus says we should be like little children coming unto Him. Lord may you increase that childlike faith in us. we love you dear meredith and pray Heaven's blessings over you in this next year of your life!
..."may our daughters be as sculptured corner pillars adorning a beautiful palace." ps.144:12
