So its time for another blog victim...I mean, another loving blog "dedication". This time I want to wish my big sister Julie a Happy Birthday!! I love the idea of writing a little something nice about someone I love and look up to. So here goes....
My sister Julie is awesome!
But what kind of sister would I be if I didn't post some pics of her growing up?
All kidding aside, I think my sister is one of the best people I know. I think having a sister like her was one of the best things that could have happened to me. She's someone who will let me cry on her shoulder, laugh with, confide in, and have complain sessions. There are so many things that I love about her. I wanted to write a really creative paragraph that makes people laugh and cry, but I'm not the creative one. I make lists, so here is my list of
"25 Reasons Why I Love My Sister (in no particular order):
1. She loves me! (haha)
2. She's very forgiving
3. She's a great cook
4. She's very smart - more than she thinks
5. She's very creative
6. She shares her kids with me
7. She's always there for me and doesn't judge
8. She respects me and I respect her
9. She listens to me
10. She has a wicked sense of humor
11. She's addicted to Diet Coke
12. She makes awesome salsa
13. She does my hair for me and makes me feel pretty
14. She'll jump off the high-dive at the pool
15. She'll dance the Electric Slide
16. She's always willing to help
17. She's a great example
18. She takes me on vacation with her
19. She hangs out with me by choice (go figure)
20. She lets me cry on her shoulder
21. She has a great smile
22. She can be hypnotized
23. She's very outgoing
24. She loves her family & will do anything for her kids
25. She loves me...did I say that already?
I realize some of those things were cheesy and my list could go on & on, but those are some of my favorite things about my sister Julie!
It was nice growing up with someone like my sister - someone to lean on, someone to count on....someone to tell on! Having a sister like her is like having a best friend I can't get rid of because I know that whatever I do she'll always be there. And I hope that she knows that its the same for me. She can always count on me, to talk to, to listen to her, to be there for her.
Julie has the best little family. I hope her family realizes what a great wife & mother they have. I know that my sister will do anything for her family. She always wants the best for them and worries for them. And loves them with all her heart! They are so lucky to have her. She is the best example of what a mother should be. I only hope that if I have kids that some of her mothering "mojo" rubs off on me. She is a great example to follow.
Anyway, the point of this whole blog is to tell my big sis Julie "Thank You!" Thanks for always being there for me through the years. We share our past, now lets look forward to our future together. Have a fantastic birthday and remember, you're not getting older, you're just getting another year closer to looking like mom. (Just kidding sis!)
Luv Ya Sis!
