Happy Birthday Emilee

Today is a very special person's birthday.

My first little sister, my Emilee.

My little sister is amazingly creative. She has such a talent to make art out of anything.

Any medium - but especially fabric.

She makes things for my boys ALL the time. She made this quilt for Canaan.

And this one for Zion.

Both my boys have a Christmas quilt.

And we all have matching aprons.

I am sure if I had the energy to go look, then scan them in, I could find pictures of her through the years, creating beautiful things... but I am too tired to go digging tonight, so we will have to settle for what I can find already on the computer.

She plays with my boys, is not afraid to get dirty....

Yet she is one of the most beautiful, polished, "girly girls" I know.

And of course, as anyone who knows her can confirm, she is an absolute riot!

Happy Birthday to one of my favorite people in the whole wide world!

(and I know people all over the world)
