HAPPY BIRTHDAY ROBERT


January 8th, 2009 - our Number 1 Angel, Robert - our first grandchild is 16 years old. I will never forget the first time we saw this precious angel. Because of him, we are Bacamama and Bacadaddy. That was the name he gave us when he started talking. He would say "Baca" and we would instantly stand at attention! After all this grandchild is so special. He would then either say Bacadaddy or Bacamama and that is how the names started. Everyone would ask how he came up with these names and with my smart mouth would reply "This is such a very special child, I'm sure the Holy Spirit has put these very words in his mouth!" Welllllllll......about three years ago, Bacadaddy was at church in the office of the secretary and said something about Bacadaddy, and she said "What did you say?" He then told her the story and she then said: "I have relatives who are missionaries in Croatia and Baca over there is for the word grandparent." So this is the story we have been told and if you ever find this is incorrect information - it might be best if you don't deflat my balloon. This IS a very special child and we are so proud of the young man he has become. He is such a blessing to us and we can only praise the Lord for our Robert.
