a little birthday love from all your sisters and de ann

Happy birthday to our sister who....

1. Has been on more vacations so far in 2012 than Jo went on in all of 2011.
2. We now refer to as our little, tiny sister.
3. Makes more trips to target than anyone else and still does not have their red card 5% cash back.
4. Believes that breakfast deserves a good dessert afterwards.
5. Cannot put down a sleeping baby. Not even her own. For at least the first few years of life.
6. Takes the role of Auntie Claus very, very seriously.
7.  Takes 2 months to decide where to hammer the hole for a picture...and she always regrets it.
8.  Is a photography addict.
9.  Doesn't want to end up on the hoarders TV show in her future.
10. Timberly says is the best, most thoughtful & beautiful of all my sisters. (the rest of us, deann included, were rightfully offended.)
11. Cannot pass by the Christmas tree with names without taking at least 10 and then crying later hoping all of the names were taken.
12. Quickly surpassed her teacher (andrea ) in fashion....andrea rues the day she ever showed her how to curl her hair with a flat iron
13. Has boxes of all kinds of magical things in her basement just in case a loved one is in need.
14. Should've been a foot model ... If it weren't for that 2nd toe that became morbidly obese!
15. Knows every lyric to every song.
16. Picks the sweetest, most fun friends so the rest of us can have some too.
17. Is the go-to girl for the correct version of any family event!
18. Throws the most exquisite part-ays! With the sweat and labor of her family members to set up.
19. Goes above and beyond to make the most thoughtful and beautiful presents for any employee at her kids' school if they anything to do with her kids:  secretaries, custodian, crossing guard, ere'body.
20. Unwraps any present someone else wraps so it can be done "properly".
21. Once was a famous journalist. We've got the paper to prove it. The Sledger.
22. Embarrasses her boys and husband when she does the robot dance.
23. Knows every quote from all our favorite movies...cat on a hot tin roof, little women, while you were sleeping...
24. Is our own resident "Beth".
25. Would hide in the linen closet for hours to avoid simple chores.
26. Shoulda been a artist or an architect.
27. Who suddenly stopped sneezing 5 times in a row every morning. How do it know?!
28. Is our own family stand up comedian.
29. Has an endearing nickname for any one who walks in her door.
30. We could never love anyone like we love our sister:)

i can't even see my keyboard bc i'm crying so!
a. who has my password?? (i don't even know why i ask that when i know it's jo. who hacks someone's email after one date?? thankfully he still married you.;)) b. i now know why everyone was texting the entire time at dinner, even deann. (my apologies for the hurtful things i said out of hunger. who knew er'rybody and their baby daddy would decide to go to cheesecake on my b-day.) c. i had a red card, but i lost it. d. tim is the godfather, what she says goes. e. biggest mistake of angie's young life. f. my basement is already an episode of hoarders (minus the 500 cats.) g. damn toe! my one beauty. h. hence the reason i am up till the wee hours every christmas eve. i. i would still prefer to hide in the linen closet with my chips and salsa for 3 hours than clean for one. j. i do have the best of friends. k. kenna always did have high hopes for me.=) l. i do nickname the world, that one is true. m. i love this more than words, and i love words. (scrabble anyone?=)) my sisters.=)

i have never loved a posting on this blog more than this one! #25 is the most true and i also believe that mad will be the one to submit your name to hoarders cause i hear the things that child says about your garage, and ever so dramatic he would be! #11 & #28 is why i <3 her the most!

can you make a video of "how to curl your hair with a flat iron" and post it on this darling little blog?...you know i only come here to steal ;)

Let's not forget that she always has a shirt to lend to someone who may be dressed inappropriately for the occasion ;-)

Happy birthday to someone I feel honored to have in my life!
Love you and all these sisters of yours. That includes you Steak Diane.
