Two-Oh.

I love this picture.


That’s me holding my little sister, Rachel.  As you can see, she’s pretty stoked about it. 

She is actually one of my earliest memories, well, her belly button is anyway.  I was only 22 months when she was born, but I remember that fresh-from-hospital belly button as clear as anything.

Today is her 20th birthday and I can’t believe it.  It’s crazy how time flies and things change. 

I’m so proud of the person Rach has grown into.  She’s smart and funny and kind and creative and I love having her around.  It seems like yesterday we were losing her in the ball pit at Georgie Pie, ‘painting’ the bricks at Granma’s house and arguing in the backseat over who had to be Isaac while we sung along to Sarah’s Hanson cassette tapes.

Happy 20th birthday, Rach.  I guess we can’t call you our little sister anymore, but you’ll always be our baby sister.  I love you to bits, you’re so special to me and I am blessed to have you not only as my sister, but one of my best friends too.  I hope you have an awesome day today and that you are spoiled, spoiled, spoiled.  You deserve it.
