Today he's turning 27......and we couldn't be prouder of the man of God he's become. He has mentored many young men and women through his job at Chick Fil A and through "life."
He is the Senior Director at one of Chick Fil A's newest restaurants in Lynnwood, WA. This store is currently #1 in the chain for average peak hour lunch sales...and #3 for average peak hour dinner sales. It's been fun to watch his leadership style develop. We continue to pray as he strives to eventually own a Chick Fil A.
Josiah has stepped naturally into the Kuya/Manong role. Kuya/Manong - oldest brother in the Philippines, a third parent.....he is loved and respected amongst his siblings and his care, respect and love for his parents is top notch.

I love Cy too - but there are no pictures of he and I together! ::snort::
It would only be fitting on his 27th birthday to remember God's work on his behalf. I was told Josiah's brain stem was not developing when I was pregnant with him. At the follow up ultra sound they thought maybe it was forming, but his intestines were outside his stomach. Forgive me, I can't remember the medical terms. While one of my best family stories revolves around the giving of Josiah's name ::wink:: his name Josiah Michael means - Jehovah Heals - who is like God? I will never forget our wonderful doctor at his birth. He turned and twisted Josiah. He scrutinized every inch of our baby boy and turned to us and said, "He's perfect! Don't worry about this birthmark, I'm sure it's not cancerous." I'd not even held the boy yet. Jehovah truly did bless us when he healed Josiah and allowed him to become a member of our family.
Happy Birthday, Son! Believing you see the realization of many dreams this year.
