Happy Birthday Sherry!

Today is Sherry's 25th birthday! Last night we had a fun time celebrating with a "chick party" with her and some close friends. It was fun listening to her friends and family tell funny stories or memories about her. Her nephews were really disappointed about not being invited to her party and wanted time to celebrate Aunt Sherry's birthday so we went to Macayo's tonight with the family. Buddy was so anxious to tell the waitress it was her birthday so that they would sing to her...and they did!

I'm so proud of Sherry! As you know (or maybe you don't) she has been in a wheelchair for the past 3 years and has handled it with a lot of courage and a good attitude. There's not much that gets her down and everyone always talks about what a joy she is to have around. She has learned to do just about everything from the wheelchair and I'm amazed at what she can accomplish on wheels. She even babysits her three nephews, ages 6, 3 & 5 months and does a fantastic job. Her nephews love her and she spoils them rotten...like every good auntie.

God has done incredible things in Sherry's life and she has an awesome story to share! I know He will continue to use her to touch hearts!

Happy Birthday Sherry, we love you so much!
