Happy Birthday Mo!




Today is my very best friend, and my sis's birthday. Mo is the very best friend that I could ever have. I couldn't ask for a better sister! It has been the best thing ever having her move down here to Meadow. We live only a few blocks away from each other, and I love it. I know that there was a reason that she moved down here when she did. There is no way that I could have made it through the past year with Jeremy in Iraq without her here. She was truly a lifesaver. There wasn't a time when I needed to run somewhere or go on a weekend trip or whatever that I knew my kids were going to be well taken care of. She was always so willing to do anything to help me out.

I have to say that growing up, I didn't think that I would be saying this. We didn't get along too well, like most sisters I think. But the older we got, the closer we got also.

There isn't a day that goes by that we don't talk on the phone at least 5 times. And my very favorite thing to do is our daily 10:30 coke run. Oh, and we do stop and get the mail too.

We have so much fun together... especially after a long shopping trip and we start getting tired, everything seems to be so funny! We get silly and laugh and laugh at the dumbest things.

I am so glad that we had the opportunity to go on our cruise to Bermuda together! I think that was seriously the funnest time we have had together. (And I still remind her that she owes me the rest of her life for taking her with me:)

Happy Birthday Mo! I hope you have a GREAT day! I love you!

Ok, is it my Birthday or make Mo cry day? I am FOREVER in your debt and will owe you as long as I live for taking me to Bermuda with you. Just ask and you've got it!

That's so cool you two are so close! I feel the same way about my sisters...I just don't get to see them much. Good thing for IN-to-IN verizon!

You do have a pretty wonderful sister! Reading that made me a little jealous...my sister is NOTHING like Monica. You are both very blessed to have each other! I know that she feels lucky to be able to be so close to you! She talks about you constantly...I don't blame her!
