Monkey's 1st Birthday

He wasn't sure what to make of the cupcake...

Oooo! Birthday gifts!

Here, Aunt Bekah, you can have this.

GUITAR! I've been missing my guitar ever since Uncle Ferret took it away to his house! They tell me I can keep this one for my very own. :D

Tuned and ready to play.

Hey! A picture of myself! I think this one's actually for Mama and Pa.

1st Birthday Candle - he didn't know what to think of this...

1st Birthday Cupcake was a bit strange, too:

Happy birthday, sweet Monkey! Our prayer for you this year is that you grow in the knowledge and fear of the Lord, and that He opens your ears and your heart to His words and His love. Yes, you may not be able to speak English words yet, but we know that little brain is doing some mighty thinking and that little heart is going to be irresistibly drawn to worship something or someone - we pray the Lord will draw you to Himself and change your heart to love Him most. Lord, help us to be faithful to teach and train! We love you very much, Little One, and look forward to another year of growing with you! :)
