Happy Birthday, Jill!

In honor of the birthday girl, the rest of us just wanted to share our favorite things about her - and some of our favorite pictures. 

Jill is the sister (as opposed to another brother) I desperately prayed for every day of the nine months leading up to her birth.  She is a loving sister, a fun aunt, and a loyal friend.  I have learned much about God's grace and faithfulness through Jill's testimony.  Happy Birthday, Jill!  I love you. ~Joanne

I've always been challenged by your eagerness to learn and thoughtfulness of others. You're such a gifted woman and minister to and serve the people around you. I am thankful for you in so many ways. Happy Birthday Jill! ~Sarah

Jill, I love and appreciate the way you listen to and care about people. You are also so giving and creative - I've always loved the little "care packages" you've randomly surprised us with. Thanks for always thinking of others. Have a wonderful, happy birthday! ~ Megan

Here is an acronym that describes you:
J- Jubilant
I- Intelligent
L- Loving
L- Leader
Happy Birthday! ~Julie

Your father refused a free trip to Israel in the spring of 1985 so that he would not miss being present when you were born.   And indeed he was there on Good Friday evening when you arrived as the new "little sister."   You have always been a diligent student, dutiful daughter, and dedicated servant.   We love you and hope you have a great birthday. ~Mom
