To Ashley (also lovingly known as Shlee)

Probably the easiest birthday for me to remember, for some reason, is Ashley's. Well, today's the day! How I wish we were closer to her, for, as you can see, the kids love her and we are quite partial to my oldest sister. Jordan said on her blog how Ashley's feathers never get ruffled. I found myself thinking of her wedding dress, which, in fact, was covered with feathers. It's true, though. She is expecting her first and what wonderful parents she and Brian will be. Two of the most calm and patient people I know. Thank you for all the nurturing you've given on my behalf (see her keeping me warm above) and on behalf of my littles. I love you Shlee.

  4. That's when Ashley came to Texas for me to make her wedding dress--her genuine happiness to have Ashley there.
