Leo Turns Four!



Happy 4th Birthday to our little Leo! He shares his New Year's birthday with his awesome godfather, Uncle Steve. We knew Leo was special from the moment we saw him! He gives us something to smile about each and every day.

Leo woke up this morning with a swollen right eye - an early birthday gift from the mosquitoes that love him so much. We celebrated Leo's birthday with a small party - inviting his friends from his preschool class and their parents. Thanks to the Bemm family who shared all their birthday decorations and party favors. We played a few games, made balloon animals, and had cake. We're not sure what Leo thought of his party - he didn't seem to like all the attention being showered on him. However, he gave us a pretty big smile when he saw his cake decorated with one of his most favorite things in the world...a T Rex.

We're hoping Leo remembers this special birthday he had in Kenya with new friends we have made. We pray that all of you have a very happy 2011 filled with many blessings!

  3. Happy belated birthday, Leo! You are FOUR..that is big stuff :) And I am amazed to learn of the pictures that you drew of Jesus, and that you chose His great love story as your subject matter. What a beautiful journey you are all on...
