It's funny that age really doesn't seem to matter where blog friends are concerned. I have never really thought about your age, just loved you for your words and pictures and most of all your testimony. The Lord has given you a great story, and we have the benefit of being able to read it here. Here's to you and to what the Lord has in store for your future!<BR/><BR/>Blessings,<BR/>ChristiCharm and Gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04930920593855400694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3606833213419475387.post-2369472279933459382008-11-03T01:09:00.000+00:002008-11-03T01:09:00.000+00:00Have a lovely B'day.
