September

September, of course, means many things...a new school year, the beginning of fall, Labor Day. In our family, it means Court and Whit's birthdays! If you know me, you know that I love my sisters. And, it is so fun to celebrate my dearest friends. And...to shop for them. (More on that to follow!)

As I've gotten older, I have realized how lucky we are to have the true friendship that we do. I adore and respect my sisters. I find great joy in their triumphs. I ache for their sadness. I pray for their dreams to be met.

So, it was wonderful to actually get to celebrate Court's birthday with her in Virginia. While it was just her birthday eve and morning, I relished being able to make her feel a little extra special, although Ryan does an excellent job of that, as well. The only thing that would have made it better, would have been for Whit to have been there to get a little birthday love, too. Oh, how I love my sisters!
