Our October birthday girl

Hannah Christine turned 11 years old in October!  Crazy girlie, growing so fast!  She continues to be a compassionate, delightful, quiet, silly girlie.  She's an encourager and a great memorizer.  It's so easy for her to get memory verses to stay in her head!  She knows her Bible and is kind to her friends.  She was even told by friends at school that they don't think she ever gets mad.  (Sometimes she does...)  :)  She likes baking and dancing and singing and drawing...



Hannie is the one out of our four who would most like to be homeschooled again.  She's our homebody.  She says she has a great teacher, is making friends, and getting good grades...  but that doesn't mean she'd rather be in school!!  Heh.  Being home is nice.  I'm glad she's doing well there and that she loves being home with family, too!

For her birthday this year, she had two girl friends over for the afternoon.  She wanted the party to be at home so we had to keep it small.  They went to the park to play and came home to play.  Of course, we did cake and presents and played some more.  I think it was a good celebration!






Then the next day on her actual birthday, all the grandparents come over to celebrate their first granddaughter!  We had her traditional pumpkin cake and talked about how strange it was that we're not in Yerevan to go to Republic Square to watch the lights and the fountains!  But we were thankful that we were surrounded by family!  What a treat.  I know not every child has both sets of grandparents so close and so in love with them and with Jesus.  We are blessed.  Blessed with family.  And blessed with Hannie!  So thankful that God gave us this beautiful young lady.


Happy Birthday, Hannie girl!!
