Ok, so she’s not much of a “let’s celebrate my birthday!” kind of person… like me, the younger sister … we’re pretty much the complete opposite…when I was little I thought she was mean… you know, the older sister that made me do my homework before I could watch tv… the one who gave me “tough love”… and the one who always pushed me to my potential — not because she was mean… but because she believed in me… yea, that’s my sister… and that’s why I have to dedicate a blog post to celebrate her… and to let her know (and the inter web) how much I love her!

I’m so incredibly proud of you… you’ve always been independent… strong… hard working… you’ve worked so hard to get to where you are today — and I can’t help but to admire the beautiful woman you are! Thank you for everything you’ve done! For my wonderful Seattle visit… for running with me in the rain… for encouraging me… and even for “tough loving” me from childhood to adulthood =) I love our relationship and the friendship that we have… and no matter what age we are, we’ll still laugh the same! That mouth wide open hysterical kinda laughter 😉

Love you! Always…

That’s us from my Seattle visit via iPhone pics… I taught her “duck” face 😉
