Because I forgot to call her and tell her...

Happy birthday big sister!

First, I want to congratulate Megan on running an ENTIRE marathon! Way to go! You are TOUGH. I hope someday to be as tough as you. But I don't think I'll ever be crazy enough (or tough enough) to run a marathon. Maybe I'll bike one.

Thank you for being a good example to me. I'm sorry for the time I snuck into your room and took some sharp scissors and cut up your beautiful cross-stitch project.

Thanks for letting me see Willie being born. It's an experience to remember (forget?).

Thanks for the countless times you'd take me for a drive and get me a kid's meal at Wendy's. I remember you used to like to get their breadsticks. They don't have those anymore.

Thanks for always having a smile when you see me. Makes the day all the brighter.

Thanks for being an awesome mom to your kids, and a wonderful wife.

Thanks for going to Logan, to Utah State to play soccer. Those were some of my favorite Sundays, where we'd drive up to beautiful Logan, especially in the Fall, see you play, and eat dinner with you.

Keep up the good work! I think you're doing several things right!

Naps

Anyone else got interesting expressions said after waking up from a nap?

Mom waking up to a phone call from someone trying to sell her a credit card:
"Why are you even trying to sell this to me? I'm only fourteen years old!"
solicitor: "ma'am?"

Willie after waking up from a nap in the car:
"Where are the bad guys? I need to protect my cereal!!"
