December 30 ~
Jayron turns 5 months old and can't wait to hold himself up and stand up (with support, of course). Besides breast milk, he now eats baby cereal, squash, carrots, bananas, and pears. It's amazing how fast time flies.

End of Year Party 2009
My Birthday
December 25, 2009 ~
Aaron, Jayron and I went to Oklahoma to spend the holidays with my family. Although it was a rough drive there because we ran into a severe snow and ice storm and the normally 4-hr long trip became a 2-day trip, we ended up having a splendid time.
Starting with some dancing on Christmas morning. My aunt, our house guest Patrice, my cousin Feh, Jayron and I.

Springdale Cluster becomes an A
December 8, 2009 ~
Amongst the wonderful occurrences of 2009, Springdale, Arkansas, Cluster became an A cluster. When we received the letter from the Regional Baha'i Council of the South Central States, the first thing I thought to myself: did they make a mistake and mean to send this letter to another community? It seemed like only a few months ago (February 2009) we were a B cluster and we have come so far since then. Then my second thought was about all the wonderful work that lay ahead. Like the House of Justice said: "...Every steadfast believer is called to a faith and determination, a commitment to unity and sacrifice that will lift the Cause to a new stage in its development. May all find a pat to play..."

Sabs & Nach Marry
More wonderful things in 2009 ~
December 2009 - Sahba Frooghi and Nachida Tchameni, very close friends from Cameroon, tied the knot. Weh, may God abundantly shower them with His blessings. There they are with my parents. [Thanks for the photo, Dad.] And in the last picture, Sahba's sister and my good childhood friend, Sahar, poses with my parents.

Leslie Farrell Gets Married
One has much to be thankful for the past year, 2009.
Amongst the numerous wonderful things that happened during the year, my dear friend, Leslie, got married. She and I served in Haifa, Israel in the Office of the International Teaching Center. In fact she trained me. We had such good times together and have kept in touch ever since.
Leslie and Tom
