sissy....

for those of you that know me you know that i call my aunt "sissy". she is my mom's older sister and my mom grew up calling her that so naturally when we were old enough to talk we started calling her that too. now my boys call her that and so does seth and all my friends. (side note: last year when i threw my sister a baby shower sissy introduced herself by her real name becky. my girl friends almost fell over cause they never knew her real name, ha ha ha!!) anyways, my sissy is soo soo special to me. not only is she my aunt but she has also been my grandma and by far my closest relative (besides my parents and sister). she is always calling to check up on me. has never and i mean never forgotten a bday or anniversary. she was here to help when each one of my kids were born....(which i think is awesome since she lives in tucson arizona.) she is a great listener and is always easy to talk to. my kids LOVE her and so does seth. she has also been through some of the hardest trials that i have ever seen someone go through. her faith in GOD has never waivered, what an example of faith she is to all of us. thank you sissy for being such a special part of my life. i love you.
