Happy Birthday to You

Birthday Girl and her husband - Thies Senegal



Connie and Craig celebrating Connie's _ _ birthday. Last year Connie celebrated to the dances of 6 Fijians in the Islands of Samoa. Her day in Senegal started with a chorus of happy birthday in English and Senegalese, accompianed by drums. Pizza and ice cream for lunch and Lin Grey made a special peanut butter and chocolate dessert for tonight. Yes, her appetite and energy have returned. A good sign.



Taylor, swaggering into the restaurant was greeted, to the surprise of Connie and I, "Bonjour Taylor" from Monique, her regular waitress (they serve pizza and ice cream). Her mother was proud of her for continuing the tradition of "fast food ministries" founded by Connie herself.















Taylor wishing she could be eating fish and rice instead of pizza.
