Every time I see Caleb's sweet face I think back to how much I enjoyed seeing him and watching him, while you were here. That was a treasured time. I do hope we can make a trip down there this summer or at least by fall. Mema Papa said it all.

Perhaps the most telling aspect of Caleb's birthday experience, was his observation about the chickens. Most of us would have been thinking about how many chickens there were; how dumb they are; how difficlt it was for the workers to get them into the crates; how much money they would bring and how important this industry is in providing some of our food. But, Caleb's attention was drawn to the fear and frantic cries of the little creatures; their desparate but fruitless attempt to stay free; how hard it was on them to be forced into crowded crates and what would happen to them next. I'm glad Caleb is sensitive and compassionate. As he grows up he will be able to observe that people also have bad days and he will feel their pain. I predict that one day he will pursue some form of ministry that meets the spiritual, physical or emotionsl needs of others. Mary Beth, like Mary of old, you will treasure these things in your heart as you observe this boy increasing in stature, knowledge and wisdom and in favor with God and man. God bless you great grandson. Papa Bless his heart. Perhaps the most telling aspect of Caleb’s birthday experience, was his observation about the chickens.
