Happy Birthday my little elf.


One should take good care in the choosing of a name if that child is set up arrive around the turn of spring. It is true that we named Oliver for its meaning of "peace" however, our little equinox child more fittingly holds to the (then unknown to us) alternate meaning of his name.

There is something in his laugh...something in the glimmer of his eyes...something entrancing about Ollie that lights up my heart and makes me on my guard all at the same time.

No one embodies the turning of spring like Oliver. I have given attention to the similarities of his personality and the typical March patterns: up and down, rain and shine, cold and hot. Such high and low moments which embody small Ollie and have since his infancy.

Oh dear, elfish child...I love you with all my heart. My spring child. My march baby. My Ollie. Happy Birthday little one!

You truly are a ray of sunshine! I so enjoyed getting to know you alittle bit better on this past trip. What a joy you were to me and will continue to be. I look forward to seeing how God is going to use your uniqueness. I love you much, little elf!
