On Sunday, we celebrate the lives of two beautiful women-inside and out. They are two of my favorite people, and I am honored to be their big sister. 32 years ago, I held these two babies. Now, I hold a baby boy born of one of these babies. Bizarre. Time flies when you’re having fun, and it flies when you aren’t paying attention. For a while, I thought I was the only one growing older, but when I look around at the people in my life, they have grown and changed as well. I am so proud of these two. They have built lives for themselves on a foundation of love and support from our family, and have developed lasting friendships. Both women are successful in life because they possess a drive to be everything they can possibly be in this lifetime. They are adventurers, and have homes when they return. They have loved and are loved unconditionally. Our family would have holes in it without them. Mom and Dad wanted a third child, and thank goodness we got two.
Kimberly, Amy, Happy birthday and many more. I love you. It has been a privilege to watch you grow.
