Happy Birthday, Brig

We left Brig at the MTC in Salt Lake City (before the MTC in Provo). I look at the small amount of luggage, and think about how meager his preparation was for the two years in England as compared to our missionaries today. Mother and Daddy had come to Powell for his farewell, and we all went to Salt Lake. It was quite a forlorn feeling to leave him behind when we went back home. One of Brig's school pictures - he looks pretty young - probably 6 or 7. (Is that a scab under his lip?) Doesn't he look innocent? Brig is about 3 or 4 - this picture was taken in our yard in Riverton. The smile has endured. We hope this is a very happy birthday - the years have certainly hurried by, and Brig has had his share of challenges and blessings in his life.

These pictures represent very precious moments not only for Brig and his mother, but for all of us who love that boy with a smile that spreds from ear to ear. Yes, Happy Birthday.
