What a GREAT Surprise!!!

LOOK what I got for my birthday from my "oldest and dearest" friend, Kimberly!

I met Kimberly when I was 15!  I STILL have the necklace she gave me for my 16th birthday! 

This woman knows my heart! 

The card says,

"Christina,

From my heart to yours

and from your heart

to each new breath from God.

Happy Birthday!

Love,

Kimberly"

I cannot express how much this touched me.  I have actually had to fight back tears two or three times just thinking about it this afternoon! 

If you read this Kimberly...  THANK-YOU!!!!  You are such a dear friend!

What a true friend to know the real desires of your heart...to give to others. You are one very lucky person to have such a friend.

Don't be a stranger to my blog! You should see what we did this week! LOL You'll never guess!

My name is Christina. I am 40 years old and have been happily married to my best friend, Russ for over 19 years! (It will be 20 in March 2010!) My username is quietcajun, but I am neither quiet, nor cajun! The nickname is based on my children's initials! The first four children are: Kaitlyn (17), Jordan (15 ), Ian (13.5), and Noah (11)... put their first intials together and you get KJIN (cajun). Sarah Hope is one of our babies in Heaven and Hannah (9) is my youngest (so far). Put S and H together and you get SH as in SHHHH... QUIET. Get it? Thus, quietcajun! We are in our 13th year of homeschooling. We have tried public school, but we soon realized how important it is that they be HOME at all costs. Now we are back to having them all home again! It's not always easy, but it is for the BEST! Two of our children have Asperger's Syndrome. That is an adventure in itself. We are still learning! This blog is a place for me to sort out the daily joys and challenges of life as a mother and wife as I strive to love and know God more and bring GLORY to HIM in EVERY part of my LIFE!!!!
