Well, you could say it has been a while since I've posted. I wish that I could share a new picture or two of my jewelry creations but I just haven't made the time to create. Life has been very busy with remodels and work, work, work! With Thanksgiving right around the corner, I was thinking about all the great things in my life that I am thankful for. One of my first thoughts was of my sister Beverly. She is truly a very special person in my life! We are nine years apart in age and live hundreds of miles away from each other and she is my best friend! We don't see each other enough or talk enough but there isn't a time that we can't just pick up where we left off. I like to tell the story of when I was very little, I found a suitcase full of Beverly's paper dolls - a very beautiful collection indeed! Needless to say, I found the suitcase and Beverly found me pinching the heads off of her entire collection. Mom, tells me that Bev loved me so much, she never lost her temper with me. I couldn't have asked my Heavenly Father to pick a better or more loving family for me. Beverly has 5 wonderful kids. Well, not kids anymore!!! All of which are grown and have wonderful families of their own. I am very lucky indeed to have the family I do. There are so many reasons to be thankful! I wish you a wonderful and warm Thanksgiving!!!
Oh Wow! I'm just a bit misty!! I love you so much! What wonderful things you shared. I am so humbled by you and feel honored and blessed to be your big little sister :)
ReplyDeleteAs I continue in the "maturing process" (no comment. please!), I realize more and more that relationships are the only thing that is truly lasting in this world. They give me complete joy and happiness. I love my family. Thank you for being the wonderful you that you are, for coming to our family. It wasn't complete until you were added. Yes, we live too far away and yes, our lives are too busy, but it's true! You are my best friend and the pieces have always been able to just pick right where we left them. What a great gift that is!
I do love you and continually pray for your happiness and success in life. You are the bestest of the best!
Your jewelry is divine! I'm going to have to get some originial pieces!!!
Always and forever, with gratitude and thanksgiving that you are my sister,
Bev xoxoxooxoxo
I give thanks everyday for my wonderful daughters. Thank you for being the person you are. Each are so different yet so alike and special. Thanks for coming into our family to share some time together, learning, loving, laughing, crying and helping each other.

Love forever,
