Happy Birthday Tricia!!!

Happy 26th birthday, my love! You continue to amazed me with your grace and beauty through all things, especially this past year.


If you'd like to say "Happy Birthday!" with more than words (and she totally appreciates the words!), please consider donating to Tricia's Personal CF Great Strides Fundraising Goal (click "click to donate" at the bottom of the linked page) to help insure that Tricia gets to spend her 27th year healthy and happy!

Hundreds of people (thank you!) have already donated to CFF in Tricia's honor, helping us to already raise nearly nearly $10,000 for our Great Strides Walk on the OBX in September! If every person who visits this blog every day were to donate just $1, Tricia would more than triple her personal goal of $5000 and we could literally help hundreds of thousands of people!

Thank you!

Nate

Happy Birthday, Dear Tricia!
You're almost exactly (?!) my daughter's age... she turned 26 on May 3rd. Ironically, Nate is "almost exactly" :-) my son-in-law's age, who turned 27 on April 20th!
Anyway, hopefully you're on a regular diet now and can enjoy the cake!!
Hugs from Florida, Pam

Faithe said...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, TRICIA!!! I'm sure this one will be filled with more praises than any previous ones. (Enjoy the pampering; you deserve it!!!) Best wishes today and in the year to come! May it be filled with God's presence and His rich blessings in your lives. You've already experienced much more (suffering and pain as well as God's rich blessings and miracles) in 26 years than most people do in an entire lifetime. God is using you to speak to so many people!!! PTL

Pamela said...

Happy birthday, Tricia! It's my birthday, too, except I have five years on you.

Aside from all of the other reasons I had to be praying for you, the 'sharing the birthday' one really was poking at me. Isn't that weird? The Holy Spirit really laid your birthday on my heart, so I have been praying you toward this day. And now I will pray you toward your next one.

Enjoy your glider. They are the best!
