Happy Aunt Lou Day!

Today is Aunt Lou's Birthday. Happy Birthday Lou!!!

Truth be told, I fear this day... 364 days a year... except on leap year.

I fear missing this date on the calendar... more than missing any other date.

Why?

Because Aunt Lou hearts her birthday... BIG TIME.

And, I am horrible about forgetting birthdays.  I'd forget my own if folks didn't remind me all day...

But you see, we heart Aunt Lou. And it would kill me to miss her big day.

So much so that at 12:15 a.m. this morning, the Goodes made a call to Aunt Lou to make sure we were the first to wish her Happy Birthday ;)

So in honor of this glorious day in which God blessed me with my one and only little sister, I present to you: 

10 things I love about my little sister.

10. She grew out of that pinching stage... eventually.

9. She has always been the daredevil between us, loves an adventure and pushes me outside of my comfort zone.

8. She has a loving and giving heart.

7.  She loves animals and they love her.

6. Her knife skills in the kitchen put me to shame.

5. Her shared interest in DC Talk, Gilmore Girls, Pride and Prejudice and all things Colin Firth.

4.  She's a fellow Adobe geek.

3. She taught me how to ride a horse and enjoy it.

2. She loves my daughter as if she were her own.

1. She's been my best friend for years ;)

Happy Birthday Aunt Lou! Love Ya!
