Happy Birthday Rachel


Yesterday was my daughter Rachel's birthday. But I am writing this on her birthday. It is like one of those belated birthday cards that was sent on the birthday but arrived late.
When busylizzy and I left Ocean Falls for the last time, Rachel was on her way. (see 'Ocean Falls' in labels in sidebar) She got to travel across Canada with us before her debut. She was a most welcome child and her arrival came with great joy. She was an absolutely delightful little girl and with her cute home made outfits and long blond braids, she drew attention where ever we took her. 
That was long ago and there is much history and many stories that made up her life, that brought her to the place she is now. 
Now, she is a wife and a mother of three wonderful boys. We are so very proud of her and we love her very much.  


Happy Birthday!
Oh, we were going to buy you a house for your birthday, but Keith beat us to it. :)
