So, you're 31?? Is that possible? Sorry if it embarrasses you but I just love seeing peoples' reaction when we reveal to them that you are the mother of 6... I'm continually amazed at your mothering skills. You are so patient!!! I don't know how you can handle the constant, "Mom mom mom mom mom mom." Are you aware that it drives me crazy when you don't answer them the first time? LOL!
Charis, you make me want to actually attempt the great challenge of parenting a child. Can't say that I want to try it with so many, but you make it look easy and fun. I joke about having a kid and giving him or her to you to raise, because I just know that you would do an incredible job. I only hope that I will pick up on your methods and use them when it's my turn. Of course, I hope my kids are smarter and cuter (since we are ultimately in competition :) This is a tall order, because it's just hard to imagine having cuter smarter kids)! Haha...
Anyway, thanks for being a wonderful sister, for being there to listen, and for being a positive influence growing up. You are so good at letting people just be who they are without judgement or unsolicited advice. Aww... I'm actually getting a little choked up just typing this - Thank you, Aunt Flo!
So, do something fun today and celebrate being a year older without aging one bit from last year or the previous 7 for that matter!
I love you...
