Sisterhood

I spent a few hours yesterday with myparents, my sisters and our families, in the guise of celebrating two birthdays. It is hard to believe that our close-knit family of five has grown to 14, soon to be 15!

Tracy and I have almost always shared birthday celebrations being only a year and sixteen days apart and this year was no different. Though Tracy and I see each other fairly frequently, Terri I see so seldom because of her very busy horse training business and it taking her out to the mountains most of each summer. It was her having to bring horses to the vet that brought her to our party which we had planned to celebrate without her. It is amazing how God answers prayers some times, Tracy and I have both been missing her greatly of late, only to have her come out of the mountains when we least expected, and on our birthday to boot!

Tracy is planning to stay home as a full time mom after the birth of her second baby next spring and I cannot wait to spend more than the occasional meal with her... all we need is Terri to find a way to train her horses closer to home.
