Happy Birthday


Today my sister would have been thirty-one-years-old. I wish she were still here.  Sometimes I wonder if she told her namesake how to push my buttons.  To get me back for all the cheating at board games I did when we were younger.

What do you mean "would have been"? Did she pass away when she was younger? Was she your twin sister? it looks like you're about the same age as she would have been.

We weren't twins, but close enough. She was 13 months younger than me. And yes, to answer your question, she passed away when she was 18. I still miss her and think about how different my life would have been had she been able to stick around!

Oh, and my daughter is named for her, in case you were wondering.
