This week we have a very special featured blogger, darthyxpu of PaulsBlogging.  Today is Paulie's 18th birthday which qualifies him in the age bracket for being the featured blogger here on the Porch.  Happy Birthday Paulie!

Be sure to scroll down, down, down, to get to to the posts if you don't see them there towards the top.  Paulie is always experimenting and adding fun elements to his blog but sometimes, for some of us, that means his template is out of whack.

As for his other qualifications to be featured blogger?  Well, he does bring glory to the Lord among his many blog posts.  He inspires others and encourages his readers.  He absolutely LOVES his family, which isn't so unusual among homeschoolers but refreshing just the same for a young man. 

Paulie my birthday dinner for you will be held at Chevy's whether you like it as well as your mother and I or not.  Your gift is a sunny day to ride your skateboard and a Blogger of the Week button.  Your party decorations will not include confetti because your mother would probably make you clean it up.  Besides, that wouldn't be safe for Sani.  See how considerate I am? 

Readers, I know I haven't pointed out any specific blog posts for you to view so please just dig through Paul's blog, there is some fun stuff there as well as pictures, pictures, pictures!  It might be safer to say that he has a photo blog! (The truth of the matter is I can't for the life of me figure out his permalink, it always shows the same URL no matter what page I'm looking at!)

Go wish Paulie Happy Birthday!
