When I was younger, I prayed for a sister. I had a brother who was just a little less than 3 years younger than me and I loved him (I still do), but I just always wanted a little sister.
I thought that my prayer would never be answered.
4 days after my 10th birthday, God answered my prayers with my little sister, Lisa. She turned our family of 4 into a family of 5!
We always joked that she was an accident since there's such an age gap between us, but as my Mom told us just this past Christmas, that after some health issues in the family, she was a reminder that God had more in store for our family. She was proof that there was more to live for.
So Lisa, on your 19th birthday, I hope you know that you are loved and treasured.
That even though I pick on you, I love you.
That a certain little 1 1/2 year old boy thinks the world of you.
And that even though you're not old and 30 like me, you are growing up way too fast.
Happy 19th birthday, Turkeybird!!!
