How quickly we grow up...

Tomorrow is my sister's 21st birthday and it seems impossible. She was just a chubby-cheeked little girl that I used to pick on and compete against for parental attention. Now she's a beautiful young lady who can make her own decisions and go to her own university!

It's strange being the oldest because you set the precedent for the family and then you're always surprised when your younger siblings do things differently...so well!

I mean, I'm so proud of you, Elizabeth. You're doing everything right and you're such a great young woman to be related to and to be friends with at the same time. I love you and I am living vicariously through this wonderful time when you're unmarried and "free!"
