Happy Birthday...

...to the one who shared a room with me when we were young (and whose half of the closet was always much cleaner than mine).

...to the one who taught me to sew, knit, crochet, and quilt (and whose stitches are always impeccably fine, inspiring me to take greater care with my own work).

...to the one who learned to bead with me (and whose adventurous sense of colour and form I can never attain to).

...to the one who cares passionately about how food is grown (and whose diet is so much healthier than mine).

...to the one who works with me, and likes me anyway.

...to the one who sat down and cried for joy at the news of my birth (and has never stopped loving me since).

Happy Birthday to my dearest and only Sister.


I'll always look up to you! :)

  17. What a wonderful photo of the two of you! And a lovely tribute to boot.

    You may think she is more talented than you, but I've seen your work. I think you both inherited the same creative gene. :)
