My Forever Friend

This gorgeous young woman turned fifteen today.

Would you believe, that just fifteen short years ago, she was this beautiful baby girl?

It's true, but I can hardly believe it myself. You see this beautiful girl is my baby sister.....

I know, shocking isn't it.
Over the years I have had the privilege of watching her grow into the amazing young woman she is today. She is absolutely gorgeous.

Inside and out.

She is kind and polite to everyone she meets, loves and cares for those fortunate to be in her life, and a great listener for anyone wanting to talk. That's probably why people love being around her.

 She is extremely athletic and talented,

and she works hard at everything she does.

Most days she can be pretty girly, always picking out cute outfits, styling her hair, doing make-up and talking about boys non-stop.

She doesn't need any of it though, she would be drop dead gorgeous if she still dressed like this....

(on second thought, you might want to keep the cute outfits Booga!)

Even though she looks pretty girly, don't let her cuteness fool ya.

This girl ain't afraid to get dirty.

She loves being outdoors whether it's camping, climbing, hiking, or just a plain old romp in the woods. My baby sister is tough as nails and can do anything she puts her mind to.

I don't think she's afraid of anything.

If she is, she does a damn good job of conquering those fears.

She is a million different things all rolled into one perfectly sized person.

She is loyal and a great friend.

She is hilarious,

playful,

extremely goofy,

 and as she likes to point out all to often, a pretty good ba-donk-a-donk.

Best of all she's my sister, my forever friend.

 

Never try to be someone else, because you are perfect just the way you are baby girl. You are perfect as you.

I love you Booga!

Love, Jo
