Happy Birthday Isaac!!!

We let Isaac choose where he wanted to eat lunch, he chose Tacos!!! They were yummy!! I was too busy eating to take a picture. Isaac has been eyeing a new knife for some time now. So we said we would let him pick it out. He had fun trying to find just the right one, decisions.. decisions.
Then we went out for ICE CREAM!!!! Isaac has really enjoyed the ice cream here in Guatemala. He has always been allergic to dairy, but here they have ice cream that is water based. And it is delicious. I told him that ice cream was as big as he was!! (he just grinned)
It was a good day for ALL of us.
Isaac said he did not want a Birthday cake he wanted a "cinnamon flat" (not to be mistaken for a cinnamon roll because it's FLAT!!)
Well here we are singing to Isaac in the dark because we had no power last night, but it was a fun time...

What I like to do for each child that has a birthday is explain what was going on the day of their birth and how all the family came to see them. I told Isaac, "the day he was born was the scariest day of my life". Titus said that sounds mean if you don't know what happened..LOL

Isaac is our little laughter, when he was born we did not know how long the Lord would let us have him. I Praise God for His faithfulness, and giving us Isaac. Our little Isaac is such a joy, and we savor every minute with him. He keeps us laughing all the time. I don't know how he lives up to his name soo well.

I love you buddy and thank God for you.

I certainly remember coming to you and Danny in the hospital when he was born. There was no baby to hold, just a picture of the little fighter who was whisked away to another location. What a terrifying day! Wow. I also remember that you, after having just given birth, were sitting indian style on your bed, fully dressed and ready to bolt outta there to get to him! :)
But what a healthy guy today, whose face nearly can't contain his big handsome smile!!
Thank you God and happy, happy day Isaac! We love you!
