Leah Silly Banana!

I have to pay a little tribute to my sister! If you knew Leah and I growing up you would know that we did not get along very well! In fact, we did not get along at all! We have horror stories to tell of our loving (did I say loving?) relationship from our younger days! If you would have asked me 20 years ago if I would name my daughter after my little sister I would have laughed in your face.

Thank goodness we are best friends now and can have a good laugh sometimes about the stuff we would do and say to each other. However, I wish I would have been a better sister and friend growing up----it sure would have made our lives a lot easier!


10 things I love about my sister!

1-She is very creative and has and eye for color and decoration. (She is my decorator every time I move. I don't put anything up until Leah comes over!)
2-She is a wonderful mom to her children. I never hear her raise her voice and she would do anything for her kids. (I aspire to be the mom she is!)
3-She is great at writing silly poems for me on the spur of the moment! (Have you heard some of her poems. They will make you laugh till you pee your pants!)
4- She is so much fun! She lights up any room and can bring fun to the most boring place! (Leah and I can get kind of obnoxious together sitting in a corner!)
5-She is BEAUTIFUL!
6-She is a great LISTENER! (She has a great shoulder to cry on and listens to my ups and downs with out ever complaining.)
7-I can trust her with my most secret of secrets and know it will stay between her and me!
8-Did I say she is BEAUTIFUL! I would love to have her complexion and FRECKLES! I think my kids got those cute freckles because I teased her so much as a kid! She has been kissed by angels many times over. That's why she was blessed with freckles!
9-She is a fun aunt. Kolby calls her "Fant Leah". Therefore in our house we have all started calling her "Fant Leah"
10-SHE IS BEAUTIFUL! (I would love to have those long legs and her energy!)


I could think of a thousand more things to write. Thanks Leah for being my best friend and putting up with me growing up. I am glad I haven't scarred you to much and you didn't turn CRAZY on me! You are the best little sister anyone could have ever asked for! I am also thankful I had a little girl I could name after you!

Love,

Jen

P.S. I hope my little Aleah is as beautiful inside and out just like her Aunt Leah!
