My Sister's Birthday is next week....I do love my Sister, but.....
I remember when we were growing up....We were kind of like glue....You know, sticking together in good times, and in bad....
I was around 4 years old, when my parents got the brilliant idea, to introduce Donna, and I, when they had company over....Then they would ask, who do you think is the oldest? Of course, I was taller then her, still am, and weighed a few pounds more than her....And the company would always pick me as the oldest....My parents would say, nope, Donna is....They lied!!! I'm the oldest, through no fault of my own.....
I've got her Birthday Card already to go....It's telling her exactly how I feel!!
"Hey Sis! Remember when we were younger, we couldn't wait to get older? Can we stop counting now?" (Our Birthdays)....It will go out Saturday, so she has it by her Birthday....
I want to quit counting right now, because I grow older, and she doesn't!! Better yet, I'd sure love to have her Birthday, and she can have mine!! That way, she'll get to celebrate her birthday every Thanksgiving, just like my parents celebrated mine....Every Thanksgiving....
I really didn't mind, when Thanksgiving actually fell on the Thursday before my birthday.....I'd get my birthday gift, cake and ice cream, before my birthday, but when Thanksgiving fell on the Thursday after my birthday, I'd suffer....I mean, what little child could wait for their birthday to come, and be all excited, for it, would be able to wait another 3 to 4 days to have their party? This one suffered greatly.....Of course when I got to be around 10 years old, I was used to it....My Birthday was not on the 25th....It was on Thanksgiving Day!! My Mom said you were born on Thanksgiving Day, and that is when we celebrate it, lol!!!
Back to my Sister's Birthday....It is so close at hand now, and....I feel so dog gone old!!!! Yea, I'm 66, and really that's not so bad.... My Sister, though, even though she's supposedly 2 years older, in actual age, she's going to be 49 years younger than me!!!
In case you haven't guessed yet....She's a Leap Year Baby....Her Birthday is February 29th, her actual Birthday.....So, she only has a Birthday every 4 years.....
See, my Parent's did lie, they said she's older, but she's not really, I am, by 49 years!! And on her next Birthday, When she turns 18, I'll be 53 years older than her....That's not fair!!!!!
Hey Donna, can I quit counting now?!! I love you Sis!! Hope you have the Happiest Birthday ever....God Bless Your Special Day!!
