Happy Birthday Jenny!!


Once you become a Mommy, your special birthday celebration goes out the window. That's not to say that you don't continue to need or want this special day~~it's just that you have to give it second, third or fourth place in your ordinary day.
Oh, but remember Jenny~~God chose this particular day among others for you to be born. You came into this world without a complaint. You were a sweet baby, never giving us a moments concern until you had pneumonia at age 18 months. There you were in your hospital crib, tied down so you wouldn't pull out your I.V. So it was during this hospital stay that your were potty trained because you couldn't stand to have the collection bag attached to you. Yes, even at that tender age, you were modest!
Once you came home and continued to heal, you slept through the night and were completely potty trained with pretty panties.
You had a very spirited side that we loved. You would get off the school bus at another stop just to have an adventure. Just goes to prove that later in life you would embark on a missionary trip to another destination and make life long friends.
Your attention to detail (right down to the very smells of the events) continues to bless all those who receive birthday cards ten or more years later!
So, on this day, your 34th Birthday~~We wish you love.

I noticed that you didn't mention labor or ultrasounds in Jenny's blog. This proves my theory that Jenny was adopted.
