Shout out to the GA's from Texas

Brent got a big surprise in the mail at work today. He received an envelope full of handmade birthday cards made by the GA's at GA camp in Texas! There were 41 cards to be exact. Each of the cards were so so sweet. Many of them saying that the girls were praying for him, loved him, asking Brent's age, and telling him that each time you see a flower be reminded that someone is praying for you. I took a picture of all of the cards and the note that we found inside! In fact this is not the first time that we have gotten a few cards, usually one at a time, and never 41 homemade cards! So getting the cards was not unusally. Brent and I were commissed a year ago with the North American Mission Board as "Chaplain Missionaries," which put us on a prayer list of missionaries and birthday list given out to all Baptist Churches. We love that! It's neat to get birthday cards and little notes during the year of others praying for you. The really funny thing to us is that Brent's birthday is January 21st!! Not sure how or even why we got this many cards today! (maybe they confused Jan. and June????) Funny mail for the Spears!
Happy HALF BIRTHDAY BRENT???

Check out all of the cards on the island!!! 41 sweet birthday greetings!
