Best Birthday Present, EVER
My Baby Sister, Beth!
A sister is a forever friend.
In 1964 [edited to say that Mom says it was 1963-what do you know-my sis didn't correct me, heh], I got the best birthday present ever. On August 15, just two days before my birthday, my little sister was born. Until I moved to TN, we shared our birthday every year--and it is a tradition that I really miss--so much more than I ever imagined I would. Maybe next year the stars will align properly and we can be together on our birthdays again.
As part of her gift, she asked me to put together a picture post like I did with my brother and father.
Well, Beth--
You're lucky this is the only picture I have on disc of you as a youngster:
Oh wait, I did find one more of you with your Farrah Fawcet hair and your goofy ass brother:
I do, however, seem to have an over abundance of pictures of you with babies:
Including some rather BIG babies:
And you always make sure to keep the newest family members in line...
You've already got the rest of us in shape--so to speak:
Let's not forget the "really" old folks ;)
The love of your life:
And of course, I have not forgotten our dear departed brother who loved you too.
Of course, it's not just humans who love you:
No matter where you are, it's a party!
Even if you don't like the cake...LOL I love the ciggy hanging out of your mouth!
Shake your groove thang! (you are soo lucky I love you--I seriously considered putting this one up there first--out in the open where EVERYONE would see it, hehe)
Okay, lastly, here's some "personally approved" pictures of you and me.
But, seriously.
Beth~~I love you so much. I miss you even more. If our "sister ESP" is working, you know that already. I hope your birthday gave you as much joy as you've given to me all these years.
You're my best friend, my closest ally, my sweet sister.
