Today, our baby sister is sweet 16. We just can't believe it! We really think 16 is sweet when it's on Abiah!
Abiah, we are just amazed at what a wonderful young lady you've become. You are such a great big sister to your little siblings, and a beautiful encouragement to your older ones. The Lord truly blessed us when He gave us you!
You are so petite, sweet, lady-like, a helper, a lover of beautiful things, and most importantly a lover of our Saviour. Happy 16th Birthday to a wonderful girl!
We love you, Bug!
Endless x's and o's~ Mom, Apphia, Achaia, & Abigail
Please wish our Bug a happy birthday!
Our Abiah is extra special in that she was born on our Nanny's birthday! Many happy, happy birthdays to you, Nanny Dearest! We miss you loads, and love you tons! Thanks so much for passing on your love of all things crafty--- we love you for it!
PS~ Anytime we sit down to write these birthday posts, we usually start to blubber. Thanks for letting us say so.




Yay I get to be the first! Happy Birthday Abiah! Hope you have a great day!

Aww Happy birthday sweet Abiah! I am blubbering with you girls and I didn't even have the joy of being around Abiah for the past 16 years. What a blessing you were to be born on your Nanny's birthday! I hope you have had a wonderful day!

Hey Long Ladies, Paps said I should complain a little about that picture, it makes me look a little fleshy. Of course I am a little fleshy so what can you expect! I love you all so, so much and what a wonderful present I got on the birthday that Abiah was born. LOVE, NAN
P.S. Big Daddy has left the building!
