Happy Birthday Chris.What a bright light you are in our life. I remember the day you were born so vividly. I lay awake all that night praising God for a beautiful and healthy daughter. You were an extra special Christmas gift to Dad and I.
Two years later we received you as a gift all over again when God miraculously brought you back to life after drowning in our creek. How we praised God yet again!
As you grew, you charmed and delighted us with your unique personality. With an older and younger brother you held your own just fine. You were both a peacemaker and the catalyst for pranks and schemes. Your laughter filled our home.
You developed a self confidence that I admire, and showed compassion for others. Early on you choose to follow Christ and shared the light within you with everyone you encountered.
Today you are still bringing joy - to us, and to your family. You still seek out those that need a friend and your pranks and schemes now delight your 2 boys who love nothing better than to play with their mom.
We're so proud of you - the choices you have made, the way you care for others, the way you are so quick to offer help and how you work daily at being who God calls you to be.
Have a wonderful day Princess. We love you.
Dad and Mom

What a beautiful tribute there Bev.
You made me cry first thing in the morning! And on my birthday yet.
I wouldn't be who I am today without the loving care of you and Dad. Thanks for taking the time and putting in so much effort to show us how to be like Christ. I love you too.
wishing chris a very very blessed birthday.....wow, what a miracle to be brought back to life.....certainly for a reason and by the looks of that adorable family, they certainly are one of those reasons.
Happy belated birthday Chris. All the best in the next year. You are raising a neat little family. I pray they will follow your footsteps with Jesus. Blessings! Kathy
