Today's my friend Faith's birthday! And we'll just overlook the fact that I was half way through elementary school when she was born, 'k?
Over the past 8-9 years, Faith and Chad have become precious friends to our family. We first met them in our Nearly/Newlywed class at church almost a year before they got married. We went to their wedding barely 2 weeks after Becca was born!
Sept 2008
We've been on mission trips, beach trips, and shopping trips together. And I can't even count the number of South 21 trips!
Faith was the first person I told when I found out I was pregnant with Hayes, besides Daniel of course! Telling her and her reaction is still my favorite memory of that time. She loves on my kids and I look forward to the day that I can return the favor.

Jenn,
Thank you for this. I am so thankful that Faith has godly friends like you in her life. You and Daniel have been a very encouraging influence and we just love your whole family. Gracias amiga! (Sorry I don't remember the Portugese version). I know that Faith will enjoy this. Until next time, thinking of cheeseburgers and cherry lemon sundrop!
Chad
P.S. I was going to throw in a good Office reference, but felt it a tad inappropriate on this oocasion.
Jen,
Thank you for such a sweet post about Faith! She (and Chad) are SO blessed to have you and Daniel for friends! Oh,and I'm jealous of all those South 21 trips! )-:
Oh dear, it's barely 10:00 and here come the waterworks! Thank you so much for this sweet birthday message.
I am SO thankful that the Lord brought our families together. I had no idea all that we would have shared over the past 8 years, but there are so many memories that I will cherish forever. I am so blessed by your friendship and don't know what I would do without it! You are the best and I love you!
What a great God to give you such close friends! I teared up reading this. What a wonderful friendship!
