Little Sisters
Yesterday was my little sister's birthday. Lindsay is 23, married, a college graduate and about to move to Japan for a year. She's not so little anymore.
We went to her graduation about a month ago. She is the first of our family (the Craig's) to graduate. This is a huge deal to us! But as I sat in the audience, all I could think was, "how does the little girl who would tattle when I wouldn't wear my seat belt pass me by? She is a brilliant designer and wife. She in charge of an entire dorm full of girls. When did she grow up?
My mom likes to tease us and say that I raised her. I am nine years older. (did you catch that one Lindsay?) And, I would love to take the credit, but there is no way I had a hand in making her the wonderful woman she is today. God has blessed our family with her!

WOW! I have the best big sister EVER! I may have been the 1st to graduate, but I can only aspire to be 1/2 the person that you are. A beautiful family and heart for God that some don't seem to understand.
The NINE year distance may have been massive when we were younger, however now I have not only a great sister, but the best friend I have ever had and ever will!
I LOVE YOU!
Lindsay
I can't believe she's 23 either! She was so little when you and Matt married. Funny how we all grow up, huh?
