It's amazing how time flies..to think 17 years ago today I held this precious little baby in my arms. And now, he shaves and has acne! What happened!
Some news about Joshua's 16th year:
*Graduated 10th grade with CLASS
*He started 11th grade with CLASS
*He played softball for our church softball team
*He started his very fist job at Funtown/Splashtown as a ride operator
*He took Drivers Ed and got his permit. We're still working on the 35 hours driving so he can take his final exam.
*He came with me to Okinawa, Japan for 3 weeks on a missions trip.
His favorite things:
Paintball and paintball and did I mention paintball?
He loves his Geneva Bible.
So there's just a few highlights...I am very proud of my boy. He is growing into a spiritually strong young man. He loves talking theology with anybody who will talk. He is talkative!
Here's my boy....Happy Birthday Josh. I love you so much! I am so proud of the young man you are becoming.

It's been a blessing to know you, little bro. My prayer would be to see more godly young men following your example and rising up in this generation.
Happy Birthday, brother. You're a lot further along with the Lord than I was at 17. Keep serving the Lord with humility.

Happy Birthday Josh! I have the privilage to serve the Lord and witness with this young gentlemen. So meek and humble, very knowlegable in the Bible and encouraging. He showed me his Geneva bible and we were talking about the different Bible we both carried(KJV was mine) at the beggining of the trip he was quiet but also was not feeling well, but a couple of days later we could not shut him up!(joking) What an example of Proverbs 22:6 oh, by the way josh, On my 3 week military training we will be doing combat paintball missions, i'll be thinking of you as I am playing with the paint ball.
Happy Birthday Josh!! I hope your 17th year is as exciting and full of growth with the LORD as your 16th. We miss you and your family!
