HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY SISTER LYNETTE!!!

I am in a weird place right now - I feel like all my priorities are all messed up in my head!! This lifestyle change... nope, not EXACTLY what you're thinking... has me all in a bundle of selfish-selfishness! I kept thinking of the January birthdays, but never did anything about them. So, Here's your card Lynette!

Some of my favorite things about Lynette:
She was the most excited of all my siblings when I was born.
She was a fun big sister - always. She'd let me listen to her Bee Gee's and Commodores Records.
She'd let me try on her dance formals/dresses and cheerleading/dancing outfits.
She is smart.
She is beautiful.
She is a wonderful wife and mother.
She is a great example of hard work and perseverance. I was so proud of her going back to school and getting a nursing degree with 3 little ones at home - I think that's a hard thing to do!
She is funny.
She's a GREAT cook!
She plays a mean game of Pounce - when her tennis elbow doesn't get in the way.
She's a wealth of medical information - I call her first in most situations.
There are plenty more - but I'm heading out to the gym (I think this is going to be a bad week! :( ) and because I'm being totally selfish these days... that's what it comes to!!

I love you, Lynette!!! I am proud to be your sister!!
I hope you have a great birthday!!!!

  1. Thank you. Way to make me wee. Does crying burn any calories? I'm still happy every day that you were born.

    It's ok to feel selfish once in a while, that's how we stay sane!
