Come have FUN with the Conrads!!!

We lean on Jesus as He is our strength for everyday.
1 Peter 4:11 Whoever speaks, is to do so as one who is speaking the utterances of God; whoever serves is to do so as one who is serving by the strength which God supplies; so that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom belongs the glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen.

Happy 5th Birthday Essie

Below are all the places you have celebrated your birthday!


This is in Oregon.  Beaverton/Portland in our appartment. We are with a new friend - Ryan whose dad also just started working at Nike with Bryan.  His name is Dan, Wife Jen and she has a sister Kira.
We love them already.  We shared pizza and cake at the pool on Essie's birthday.
 
 

Above is in Newberry where you and Adeline shared a cake!  A super fun night of Sardines followed.  Meme and Papa, Annie and Chad and Henry are great at that game.

Below you celebrated in Ft.Myers with Sassy and Grandpa and Andy.  Nothing like going shopping!

Esther, you are a gift from God right to us.  We read Psalm 139 the morning of your birthday. You are wonderfully made.  God has great plans for you.  Keep growing in your knowledge and understanding.  We had so much fun with you being four. You played piano in front of our church and your school.  You are so brave.  You are so smart you are well on your way to reading and can read many words now.  You love laughing and add so much laughter to our family.  You learned to ride your bike this summer without training wheels.  You are sensitive about spiritual things.  You are a compassionate friend.  You are a great and generous sister. You love your family well.
