Blessing #5

My sister, Pam. (You're not less of a blessing than #3 - it was just a good day to post that one! :) )
Wow, where do I start. I have the wonderful privilege of being her older sister and her sister in Christ. We had our rough times growing up, but we have become such fabulous friends. We can laugh, share, cry, pray and play together. I know that I can call her anytime I need an ear to hear and a heart to join in my happiness or sorrows. She has the most amazing tender heart that overflows with mercy and grace for who is there to receive it. She also knows how to be silly. Thank you for teaching me to be silly! (I often bust out with random dance moves - ya know!)

I can't wait till this spring. She'll being doing a clinical - her last one before graduation - here in town! That means that we'll be able to see each other more than just every other month or less! This will probably be the most we've been able to spend time together since we lived together during the summers between my sophomore and junior year of college. I'm so excited to get to share life with her in a more practical, everyday sort of way.

Then shortly after graduation, she'll be marrying a wonderful guy! I am so thrilled for her. She has walked with the Lord through this whole dating/courtship thing and it really shows in their relationship. He is such a blessing - a follower of Christ - who overflows with his love for others. I will be proud to call him my brother-in-law!

OK, I've been long enough today. I'm off to do some housework! Love you Pam!!
