Nancy

My sister Nancy.

Obviously she is beautiful.

Did you know she was a model?

But her outer beauty pales beside

her inner beauty.

She loves her family.

Her husband.

Her sons.

Her daughters in love.

Her granddaughters and grandsons.

Her parents.

Her sisters and brothers.

And we all desperately love her back.

She has a sense of style that is

immediately apparent.

In her clothing,

in the fabulous jewelry she designs

in her home.

But again that pales beside the

style and grace with which she lives her life.

She spends most of her time helping others,

making our parents happy and safe 

and comfortable in their new home.

And volunteering so much of her time

and expertise to others in her

community who are struggling.

Bringing joy and beauty back to their lives.

Someday I want to be like her.

But she is one of a kind.

So in the meantime, I'll just love her.

And wish her the happiest of birthdays.

LOVE YOU NANC!
