Thank you, sister. Yes, our lives weren't perfect but I wouldn't trade being raised by them, or with my siblings, for anything in the world. Love you!

Ha! Sorry, not sorry I made you cry. 🙂 I love you too, so much. And, I will definitely keep writing. Awww...yes, your sweet parents had a wonderful love story too. We are both so blessed. Hugs...
