Name:
Location: Cleveland, Ohio, United States

I'm a Southerner, born and bred (though you'd never know it from my accent, I'm told). I like to eat 'til I'm tired out from eating, hear good storytelling 'til I can recite the stories in my sleep (Stories have to be told or they die, and when they die, we can't remember who we are or why we're here.), watch people, look at sparkly things, listen to good bluegrass music, dream about owning a dog, tell crazy stories about my family, and organize things.

Happy Birthday, Jennie


Where to begin to describe my younger-sister-by-eight-minutes....

After much searching, one might discover that

Such talent
Such humility
Such strength
Such fragility
Such bluntness
Such softness
Such creativity
Such constancy
Such patience
Such kindness
Such brilliance...

Could only be found in the likes of Jennie.

28 years.
28 cheers for J.E.M.
Hip hip hooray.

XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO

As I posted on Jennie's blog, I remember the day you were born. It was a rainy Arkansas day and I was 10. Perhaps even more interesting was the day we all found out Pat was going to have you. I remember distinctly the look on you mom's face when she told us that not only was she pregnant, she was going to have twins! Your dad joked about how when you were twenty, he would be in his fifties. It doesn't seem like 28 years ago.
