(I'm sad to say, no pictures for this post. So sorry Kristyle and Maria, but I still love you just the same!)
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO KRISTYLE (aka my mom)!!!!!!
Any of you who know my mother, know how incredible she is. She is one of the most selfless, charitable, hard working, loving, patient, funny, spiritual person I know, and I feel so lucky to be her daughter. A few things you may not know about my mom that make her the BEST:
-She makes the most wonderful homemade Chicken Pot Pie. To die for. Just ask Megan Woodley.
-She has run 7 marathons, and who knows how many half marathons. She runs nearly everyday of the week, rain or shine.
-My mom teaches middle school English and enjoys it. She is the bravest person I know, who would want to teach that age group? She works so hard for those kids and loves them regardless of how onery, rude and disrespectful they can be.
-She in the most noncompetitive loving person.
-My mom loves to write poems and she actually very good at it. This skill came in very handy when it came time to asking boys to dances.
-Deep down inside I think my mom would love to be an opera singer!
-Sunday afternoons when cooking in the kitchen, we would put music on and dance and sing! I miss those days. :)
-She is always putting others before herself.
I could go on and on. Every day I strive to be more like her. I'm so blessed to have her not only as my mom but one of my closest friends. Happy Birthday Kristyle!
ONE MORE....
Happy Birthday to Maria (aka Katherine)!!!!
I think everyone that has met Katherine loves her. Katheine is loyal, compassionate, giving and SO SO SO FUNNY. Seriously one of the funniest people I know. Katherine is my older sister, and has always looked out for me and has been there for me. We've always been close, but since moving to Chicago, I feel like our relationship has grown even more! I'm so lucky to be your sister Katherine. Here are some things that make Katherine so wonderful:
-She is so funny. Her humor is witty, quick and clean. She makes everyone laugh!
-She is always positive. Katherine looks at the bright side of life and helps others do the same.
-Katherine is an amazing photographer. Check out her blog and you will see what I mean. She is so talented.
-Katherine silently serves. There are so many things she does for others that goes unnoticed. She's so good at finding ways to help others around her. Whether its making dinner for someone, stopping by to visit, or making sure kids at church have things to entertain themselves, she reaches out to others to make their life better.
-She is a great mom and has the most adorable daughter.
- She has traveled all over the world! Africa, China, Europe....
-She would do anything for her family and friends!
Once again I could go on and on. Katherine is someone I have always looked up to. I'm glad to know she is there for me whenever I need her. Thanks for being a wonderful sister Katherine! Happy Birthday!

And Katherine is such a sweetie; you are right about her always serving others - she has been so friendly to me. It is fun to hang out with her and Grace at playgroup.
