birthday surprise

Today I had my early birthday surprise! My sister is here from B.C!  My wonderful husband thought it would be good timing for her to come for a visit since it's also my birthday tomorrow. Very few people knew this. I tried to get the secret out of Leanne but she feigned ignorance, so I thought she didn't know. She's finding it beneficial to be silent sometimes!
So today she's coming home. The last two days she's been sitting in her wheelchair all afternoon, rather than just an hour or two, so that will make it much more pleasant for her. She can join us wherever we are. It will be a busy weekend, but very enjoyable I'm sure!

  1. That is a best birthday present ever, isn't it Diana! You have a thoughtful husband! Leanne, I can just imagine how special it must have been for you, keeping such a great secret from your Mom. Enjoy seeing your Aunt and cousin! It is very good to hear that Leanne has the strength to be up and about more now. We hope to see you all tomorrow. Much strength!! Uncle Wilco and Aunt Julie

    One for the birthday mom: Age is something that doesn't matter, unless you are a cheese.

  7. Leanne:
    We have been remembering you in our prayers here since we heard of your stroke. We are so happy with you that there has been good progress and that you are able to go home! Maybe you do not remember us, but when we were in Canada last time I believe our daughter swam with you and your siblings in your pond? We pray that you will continue to receive strength and healing from our Father in heaven. Remember He cares for you!

    Diana:
    Happy Birthday! May God grant you many more with His rich blessings. May God grant you and your family all that you stand in need of!
