Birthday Week
Katy and I were born a year and four days apart. Her birthday is April 21st and mine is April 25th. I don't know how many times I've said that in my lifetime, but I love that fact. I have many special memories of shared birthday parties. I remember knowing when it was Katy's birthday that I only had four more days until mine. There were those few years when I watched her turn 12 and she got her ears pierced, turn 14 and got to wear make up, turn 16 and got to drive and date, etc. and I had to wait a whole year for my turn...I guess on her end, it wasn't always easy going first. Here's to you, Katy, and to many more Birthday Weeks together.

Beck, you are so sweet! I just teared up and it really means a lot to hear you say those things. It was pretty cool growing up and always having a birthday that close to yours. I know it was tough for Mom and Dad in those days, but I am so thankful we were all so close in age. But I am glad for Mom's sake that we were at least a year apart. We could have been Irish twins! I love you!!!
