Happy 40th!

What big eyes you have! LOL!

You are the fun of my life and I am so glad that the Lord allowed us to spend our lives together. Everything is more fun when you are with me. Our boys love being with you, laughing with you and enjoying life.

I pray for you often that God will use you in a mighty way and I know that he has. You have been invited to do things that I know was a dream come true for you and I am so proud.

You are a beautiful lady and so full of life. I love you more today than ever. Happy 40th Birthday and many more years to come!

Yours Always,
Gene

P.S. I really wouldn't have used this picture, but it is the only one on the laptop that we have with us on the trip! I think it is cute though! It shows your fun and crazy personality.

Sis. Elms, Sis. Hurst, and Sis Holley, I love to hear when families especially Sisters are so close, and then when you share it with others. May the LORD continue to bless each of you,
Cheri

Happy Birthday Sis. Karla! The picture is outrageous. I definitely would be on the lookout Bro. Gene. You must use an Apple computer, because Joel and just did our pictures like this on an Apple laptop, but you will probably never see mine. Maybe Joels.......LOL

Mom I just wanted to say that I love you, I enjoy waking up in a household that there is no screaming, fighting, or abusing. With your voice saying, "Wake up," I'm glad you're my mom and I enjoy my life living with a mom like you.

Love, Chad

P.S. I hope that card works
