Yes, we've had years of turmoil;
Younger Years
Us: "Mom, she's touching me..."
Mom: "Girls, if you don't stop arguing, I'm going to make you hug & kiss"
Us: "Grrrrooooosssssss!!!"
Teen Years
Traci: "Where's my shirt?"
Me: "I think it's down the street" (Jessica's house, 3 of us shared closets)
Traci: "Get me my freakin shirt"
Me: "Allllright Terdface" (nickname she's been fighting me on for years)
Most of our life we've gotten along more than fought and made each other laugh until we almost peed our pants.
Like the time she was running on the treadmill and got her foot stuck in the edge between the hard plastic & the moving tread and was running w/ 1 leg trying to get the machine shut off. That one nearly sent me into seizures from laughing so hard.
Trac has always been my closest friend. Always there for me, always supporting me when maybe there were times she should have given me a swift kick in the butt. So as previously stated, my parents did rather well creating the sister I never knew I always wanted.
And now she's not only a great Sister, but a great Aunt. And to really top the cake w/ some yummy icing, she's going to be a great Mommy in just a few short weeks to a little boy that I CANNOT WAIT to meet. I am so proud of my sister and proud to have her as a sister.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TRAC, you put a smile on my face everyday and usually it's when I'm laughing hysterically at something you've done. I love you to the moon and back and a gazillion more times over. Have a great day.
