Happy Beibi!

From the coastal shores of Central America, HAPPY BIRTHDAY GRAAAAAAAAACE!!!!! Otherwise known as GiGi, Gracia, and my all time favorite, GACHI. Ahahahha. She is and always will be more than an acquaintance, more than a classmate, more than a friend. She is my sister in all the true sense of the word. We have laughed together, cracked up together, cried together, sobbed together, been bored together, found things to do together, fallen, grown, faltered, overcome, learned, dreamed, hoped, longed, and simply sought to enjoy life for the glory of God. Grace I thank God for the blessed day you came over to my house so see what was up and a few hours later a deep, strong friendship was established that has lasted through so much and which I have confidence in the Lord will last unto eternity when we will bow our knees before our Lord and Savior and proclaim his Holy name with the purest of voices and intentions. I appreciate the sincerity with which you have always treated me, which though some might call "tough," has always been for my edification. It is a privilege to stand by and see what God has chosen to do in your life and especially now as he is orchestrating a beautiful masterpiece in your spiritual life and the love of your heart. I am proud of you, blessed by you, overjoyed with where you are and what you are doing. So, my sista, this special day is blessed because it is the celebration of your lovely life. I love you and sincerely wish you a day and year filled with the joy of the Lord.....y Coca Cola Tambien, y a los viejitos (Nani) cafe.....
