January 27, 1984

If i take a look at this day, January 27, in history many things have happened.
Many, many things.
I googled it this morning.
There are too many to write here, but you can google it when you have time.
What is interesting is this date, January 27, in the year 1984.
Some very interesting things happened.
Here are some:

  • John & Yoko release "Milk & Honey" album
  • LA Kings end Wayne Gretzky's NHL-record 51-game scoring streak. The Los Angeles Kings beat the Edmonton Oilers, 4-2, ending Wayne Gretzky's NHL record for consecutive point getting at 51 games. Gretzky collected a total of 153 points - 61 goals and 92 assists - during the scoring streak, which started Oct 5, 1983
  • Michael Jackson is burned during filming for Pepsi commercial, his hair catches fire and he is hospitalized
  • Carl Lewis beats his own indoor world long jump record by 9 inches (23.5 centimeters) with a 28-foot, 10-inch (8.795-meter) jump.
  • I, myself, was playing hockey I think.

Anyway, to make a long story short - Something else happened on this day, January 27, 1984 - something absolutely incredible, something truely special,

And that is what I want to mention today:

Little, tiny Karen Elizabeth entered the world.
That's right, it is my wife's 26 Birthday Today! So Happy Birthday Karen! I wish I was with you and Maia today to celebrate with you, but that is okay. I am just so thankful that you are safe and healthy, and that the LORD has blessed you with another year.
It is my prayer that He will bless you with many more years, and with health, strength, joy and peace.
I love you.
Your husband.
