July 24th, 2008! Happy Birthday, Bryon Douglas Collier!


Bryon with Brandy. I like this picture.

Bryon, here's what we have on the board at home! I don't have a picture of your mommas, but she has "Happy birthday, Boys! Philip, Bryon, and Timothy!" on hers.


I might have already wrapped your presents! Okay, I really did...but I just couldn't wait. Guess what's inside!!!!!!! I'm sure the anticipation is just killing you.

And I thought you might enjoy what was published in the Parthenon today on your birthday. None other than the New dorms. I thought you might appreciate me mentioning this in my entry!


Dear Lord,
Thank you for giving this person that I've come to know first as a friend, and them whom I've grown to love 21 years on this earth with his wonderful family and friends. Thank you for his faith in you. Thank you, Lord, for giving me the opprotunity to start my first ever job in an office at Marshall where I knew no one, because it's there that you allowed Bryon and me to cross paths. Thanks for giving me the courage to tell him "Yes I will to go the MU cafe with you". Lord, thank you most of all for his salvation. I ask that you give him a wonderful day, because I think he deserves it. Keep him safe, and please also bring him home safe! I ask that you continue to use him in this last week in D.C., and I pray that others will see a difference in him that shines your love of kindness and care brightly. He's an encouragement to me, and I know you will use him for great, and eternal things!


Happy Birthday, again, Bryon!

Everyone here in WV/OH loves you!
