Our baby is now 17 years old! How can that be?!? Since Hannah and I planned to be in Grove City on February 15, her actual birthday, Willis and I celebrated with her on Tuesday February 12. (The closest available day; Wednesday is busy with church activities and we were leaving after school on Thursday.) It’s the first time in Hannah’s life that she has not had at least one sibling here for the celebration. For Willis and me, I’m thinking it’s like the declining side of the bell curve of raising our children. Back in 1986 just the 3 of us celebrated Nathan’s first birthday. Now here we are, 22 years and 4 children later, with just the 3 of us celebrating Hannah’s birthday!
But let us move along to happier themes! On the ACTUAL DAY we arrived in Grove City and following the orchestra concert—more on that in a future post—we enjoyed cake and ice cream with friends in Bethany’s dorm. Thank you to Josh for the cake artistry!

I think a cotton boll would more adequately characterize Mississippi! Allicia
Yes my baby is 17, hard to believe! I wanted to be in GC for all the fun but they made me stay home to take care of the dogs.
I LOVE YOU HANNAH!
DAD
