Jim wished me Happy Birthday 40 times here (he did it today on yesterday’s post which was showing earlier today). Thanks, Jim.
I don’t have any profound things to say, but I’m thankful for the life God has given me for 40 years.
100% of my life has experienced the love and care of my parents.
93% of my life has been as Jim’s big brother. (100% as Beth’s little brother).
88% of my life has been in relationship with Jesus.
60% of my life has enjoyed ministry with Campus Crusade for Christ.
50% of my life has been in the pleasure of knowing Cathy.
35% of my life has had the blessing of children.
12% of my life has been spent watching my hair depart.
8% of my life has been lived in Hungary.
0.3% of my life has been spent celebrating my birthday.

This is first to reinforce the 100%. We really loved that chart !
Your experiences commuting in Kiev were great! And the picture of cold was very real. We are sitting here with 7 deg. F this morning…..and it is to be colder tonight.
With our love we wish you a special day celebrating with your dear wife,Cathy, and Andrew & Audrey.
