One of my most vivid childhood memories is of a day in February, It was fifty years ago,and when I got home from school,my Grandfather was there to pick us up.
He told us we had a new baby sister. I was so excited and could hardly wait to see her.
My parents brought her home about a week later.
She was beautiful,all babies are pretty, I know but this was my new baby sister,and she was special.
I was nine, and I was excited to take care of her and help my Mother.
She was a special child,and our relationship was always close,and I am happy to say we are still close.
Fifty years and we have shared many tragedies and some hurts and unhappiness. But we have also shared much happiness. We have three wonderful children between us.
Karen raised her two daughters as a single Mother, and they have grown up to be lovely young women. I am so proud of the woman she has become and everything she has overcome to get there.
She has five beautiful grandchildren, who all adore their Nana. And then there is Cal,her furry baby. He adores her.
Karen Jean Scott, you are a wonderful sister, and I love you as much as when you were that sweet little baby girl. I am proud to be your sister.
Happy Fiftieth Birthday
