To Doc's Little Nothing of a Sister.....



She`s got a smile that heals me
I don`t know what it is
But I have to laugh when she reveals me

(On the phone, when she is supposed to be workin')

She`s got a way of talkin`
I don`t know what it is
But it lifts me up when we are walkin`
Anywhere

She`s got a light around her
And everywhere she goes
A million dreams of love surround her
Everywhere

She`s got a way about her
I don`t know what it is


I don't know what it is... but I have a couple ideas!
You are so much more than you realize.
Obviously, you are beautiful.
But even more than that: you are funny (seriously giggling hard, can't breathe funny) you are a loving mother (you'd have to be, to go to all those Track Meets) you are caring sister, a devoted friend and a woman worthy of all the love... she extends to others.
And you can Slam (sip very slowly for 26 minutes)
a LunchBox, like a Champ!
You have proven you are brave. You have guts and you strive to find the better you. You have strength, you were unable to see in yourself.
I am grateful to be your friend.
Pleased to be your sister.
Blessed to have you as my children's Aunt and
God-mother (#2).
Happy Birthday, Flag Girl!
You are still not as awesome as Doc...
but you are a pretty amazing Second Place!

Here's lookin, at one of the Best Years of your Life!!

Happy Birthday Flag Girl! Hope you have a great day and an amazing year. You deserve so much love and happiness. Remember...In the end the love you take, is equal to the love you make.
I know Beatles too.

PS - I know these lyrics are Billy Joel. I just meant in general due to Tru Stories obsession, I know Beatle's music.

Happy birthday, Flag Girl. You are amazing in every way possible. Beautiful, kind, funny, giving, and a true WARRIOR!

(Do you have more birthday shout-outs than Doc yet? That's what you wished for when you blew out those candles today, wasn't it?)

Tru Stories said...

And. It. Happened....
Doc received 15 Comments on her Birthday.
With this, Flag Girl will have 17.

(Sure, some of them are Doubled up. And at least 4 Comments are from Flag Girl herself... But STILL.)

It. Happened.
Who's Homecoming Queen, now??

my very favorite thing is when everybody is doing lunch boxes at the bar and after flag girl has very slowly sipped hers for 26 minutes, she slams it down and yells done and scares the crap out of everyone that finished 25.9 minutes before...

happy birthday flag girl!

Just two more comments and Flag Girl breaks the 20 Comment record. That would be huge.

One of the things I like about Flag Girl is that she is one of the few that will laugh at 90% of what I say, so.......I guess I like her because she boosts my ego.

Happy birthday Flag girl. I am not really late. after all you were only a year older for an hour yesterday. You have just started your new year 6 hours ago. Have a great time celebrating today too. Thanks for all the love excitement,and fun you've given us all these years(boy, they are adding up, but that is one thing you have over Doc. You will always be younger)Enjoy today rest of your life. Love you, Mom
