HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAR ROLAND
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TOOOO YOOUOUOUUUU!!!
My dear nephew Roland turned a whopping NINE yesterday; the last time I saw him he was a toddling mass of two-year-old naughtiness, always running down the road heading straight for the train line. Since then, apparently, he's gotten a lot bigger.
Eldest son of my dear sister Gini, he's the first of 4 siblings in Gini and Eman's tribe. In fact, with Gini's permission, I would like to hereby post a pic of the boy in question; mainly for identification and proud-auntie-showing-off purposes. May I, please???
Even though I haven't seen Roland in years and years, I've kept tabs on him and his siblings, and on this occasion, I wish I could fly to Norway and help him celebrate, sniff. Since that alas isn't possible this time, I'm sending a heapload of love and imaginary birthday presents, good wishes, and prayers your way, dear Roland.
To my readers: please keep this lad and his family in your prayers; they will be moving to a new house this coming week, and I've no doubt they can use all the support in prayer they can get; relocating a whole family to a new house and new schools can be a trying ordeal, even if it is a major answer to prayer. Well Roland, merriest wishes for health, happiness, and bigness, and may you have a wonderful, marvellous new year, full of nine-year-old-boy antics and new discoveries. With all the love I can stuff into this post, and in the hopes you'll not forget your doting old auntie Praisee,
WE LOVE YOU!!
So sweet of you to remember,,,,
ReplyDeleteWe are settling in the new house now, and will soon send some pics to everyone ( Now, where is the cord to the camera... ? )
