I was blessed with 3 brothers. They are all younger and so good looking. :) I really, really always wanted to have a sister, though. I remember when my youngest brother was born, I was 11 years old. Mom called me to let me know she had just given birth to a cute little baby BOY.
"Really? REALLY? Mom, reeeeeaaaaalllly?
Sorry, I was just a bit disappointed. It passed and I got into helping her w/ a newborn. Girls that are about 11 years old LOVE babies. Have you noticed?
Well, when each of those guys married I got 3, yes, 3 sisters! And my early bonus was when I got married, I got PAM! She is William's sister from Dallas. She's become such a good friend and we love to hang out with each other. She is in such good spirits 99.99 % of the time. She radiates pure joy. My kids love her, too.
Anyway, she drove all the way from DFW area to participate in my almost annual cookie exchange. She made 10 DOZEN cookies and they were very yummy. We got to go to MY favorite place to eat (Maudie's) on Friday night and she never, ever complained. What a SISTER! Then she got up early on Saturday to attend my little party at 10 AM. She did ask me just once, "umm, why 10 o'clock in the MORNING?". She's a champ.
She also brought xxxxxx amount of pairs of shoes. (She's from Dallas, ok?) but she chose to join the game and wore her black sequined shoes. The rest of us have plain old silver. That's Kristen, Tamera and I.
She did make fun just a bit of the Christmas tree decorations on northwest Cap. of TX freeway. We just told her, 'it's an AUSTIN thing'. She gets it. Totally. AUSTIN is kinda weird in her book.
