Happy Birthday Abbey !



Today is our granddaughter Abbegael's 7th birthday! She is growing up and growing in the Lord every day.


I have known her since she was so small she could fit in a shoe box...now she is a little lady and the best 7 year old "speller" in Ohio.

But with the coming of age and growth, as new skills are learned, old things can be left behind.

Left behind...but not forgotten.

So here are some "Abbeyisms" that we don't hear anymore:


  • "Is it darkened yet in Texas"?

  • "Red Clobster"= Red Lobster

  • "Bib Bobbins" = Red Robin or was it Bob Evan's?

  • Old Mac Donald's = McDonald's

  • And my personal favorites...She asked me once ..."Why did you scrape all of your hair off?

  • "Will you come to my ballet b'cital?"

We love you Abbey for who you are and who you are growing up to be...


We love you for being a good daughter to your Mommy and Daddy!


We love you for being a terrific big sister to Emme and Cammi!


And for learning Spanish....feliz cumpleanos a ti mi amor!


Have a blessed birthday and we will see you soon!


I love you,


Papa Fred

Dad,
I really appreciate how you love my girls. They may not yet comprehend how awesome that is now-a-days, or what a treasure grandparents can be, but I do.
Thank you,
Des
Plus I delight in your unique sense of "rolling".

Nicely done.
