Happy Birthday!!


Happy Birthday to this cutie!!


The definition of cuteness!

Esther and food go way back!!

Our family comedian!
(That's the 'chocolate dance'; it's totally a Ulmer thing!!)



The best cook on the face of the earth!!


Happy 19th Birthday, Esther!!!
What a blessing Esther is in our home!!
For the past few years Esther has done nearly all the cooking for the family, which is no small job!! Whether making skirts for her little sisters, or getting up early to make Seth a hot breakfast before he goes off to work, or helping a young mother with her new baby; Esther is constantly giving of herself to help others. Esther is the leader in many of our projects around the house, and skillfully organizes everyone to accomplish big tasks in short order.
It is wonderful to watch Esther and her walk with the Lord. How diligently she strives to be like the Lord, following Him and always relying on Him for strength. The example she gives to her younger siblings is precious!!
We Love You, Esther!!!

Happy Birthday, Esther. I can tell you are a very special blessing to your family. You are a beautiful young lady, but most importantly you have a inner beauty most girls lack. Never loose sight of the Lord, and you'll always shine from within.

Happy birthday, Esther! I hope you had a wonderful day. It has been fun to get to know more of you, than just your name, between NCHEA, and church! :)

May God bless you above, and beyond what you could ever think in the year ahead! Keep shining for HIM!

When was the second to last picture taken?

Um, lets see...the second to last picture was taken the spring after Scott and Lydia got married, so the picture would be about 2 years old.

Happy Birthday, Esther! I know you are such a blessing to your family and someday you will make an amazing wife and mom! God has such a beautiful plan for you! Keep on being you and taking a stand even when it gets lonely - it really does matter.

Enjoy your last year as a teenager!

Love you LOTS! ((hugs))
