who celebrates their 28th birthday today?

My sister, Abby.

Abby is the eighth child of nine. I remember being in Mrs. Donald's second grade class when I received the news that she was born. I was super excited. When I was in fourth grade I stayed home from school once to take care of Abby because my mom was sick and I was the only one Abby would go to... we have a special bond.

Fast forward 20 years later... Abby and I both end up living in Oregon with our husbands. We love living near each other. When we are together, we never stop laughing- not because I'm funny, but because she is.

Abby is a super talented blogger (check her out in the latest edition of Artful Blogging). I could go on and on... but her blogs speak for themselves. Check them out here, here, and here... and wish her a Happy Birthday!

Love you long time, Abby!
Happy Birthday.
