Walking Therein

Happy Birthday PAULIE!

WOW!! 18!
Paulie, my Honorary nephew, is eighteen today. The Suarezes and our family have become fast friends, and it seems as though we have known them all our lives. Right now, they are all celebrating with a bunch of other great families, and, since you are already having such a great Birthday Bash, I will just post the poem I wrote for you.

The party started yesterday on Paulie's blog. If you want to join the party, you can follow the posts on Happy 18th Birthday, Dude! from Mr. Linky.  Matt and Amanda and Rachel left on Thursday for TN (yes, Jocelyn stayed home to be with me-and the goats, and Amanda is missing her already!!) :)), and the rest of us are home. They are having a BBQ for Paulie's party, and the picture on his post looks delicious. I also love the gifts Amanda selected for him. Go take a look. I couldn't take time away from the goats (eye rolls), so all I have to offer is the family who did drive down there and this poem:

Happy birthday dear Paulie
I hope your day's great.
I'm sorry Amanda can't read a map,
and they got there so late.
~
As you turn the big eighteen
don't stay up all night
you've done that at our house, and well,
the next day you just don't feel right!
~
We hope you have fun
with your LAN pc games.
Be sure to pick a good partner
so you aren't put to shame.
~
I could go on and on
and say what a great kid you are
but everyone knows
how bright shines your star!
~
So, have your fun
and a great BBQ,
and eat the yummy cake
Amanda's making too.
~
But don't have too much
fun without us
(Jocelyn and I
don't want to fuss),
~
'Cause we're really sad
we can't be there too
So the rest of the Dixon's
send our best birthday wishes too!

(((HUGS))) to you Paulie, and to Mom and Dad. What a milestone! Thanks for sharing it with us. God has blessed us to know your family. I hope you have a great time of fellowship and, of course, great food!

Btw, I read that you didn't take my advice about *not* staying up all night... how do you feel right about now then?? :))


blessings!
