It was my older sister's birthday yesterday (I won't tell her age, but I can tell you that when I asked my nephew how old mommy was, he said "28". Smart kid!) and we surprised her with a party at my dad and stepmom's house. It was in the backyard, and the skies threatened rain, but fortunately for us it was a dry night.
My sister acted somewhat surprised, but she says she suspected something was up when I hadn't called her all day and couldn't make it to a restaurant when she called with dinner plans.
I wasn't able to publicly wish her a happy birthday yesterday because the entire network at work was down for most of the afternoon, and then I didn't get home till well past midnight after the party, so I want to say:
Happy birthday, Mary! I thank God every day for blessing me not only with a wonderful older sister, but a sister I can call a friend. I love you!
