My baby sister… Well, she’ll always be my baby sister, no matter how old she gets.
And each year she gets older, I get to watch her grow even more fabulous, as a person, wife, mother, daughter, sister and friend.
She’s smart, funny, silly, goofy, stubborn, methodical, a planner, steadfast, loyal, a good listener, silly, fun to be around. I could go on but this part would be a mile long! She’s my sister, I’m biased of course!
June 9th is a great day in history, so many great people were born on June 9th, Donald Duck, Johnny Depp, Natalie Portman, Mike Ryba and Cole Porter, she’s in good company!
A few great things happened this date in history.
In 1948 ā Foundation of the International Council on Archives under the auspices of the UNESCO. In 1973 ā In horse racing, Secretariat wins the U.S. Triple Crown. And in 1934 ā Donald Duck makes his debut in The Wise Little Hen. In 2017 – GES’ big sister, me, got to spend her birthday with her little sister.
And the most important date in history, June 9, 1975, I became what I was meant to be, a big sister, GES was born. I will never forget waiting for mommy to come home from the hospital, going to get her and holding my baby sister in the back seat of the VW Beetle Bug [and you thought my love of these cars started with mine!]. And it’s been an amazing ride ever since.
Happy birthday baby sister, I love you. I can’t wait to see what this next year holds!
