Happy Birthday Jami!!!!

Today is my little sister's 11th birthday.

I can remember when she was born.....Oh! that was a crazy day!

The day she was born. I was 9 years old and in the 3rd grade. We were in inside recess (it was too cold outside) when a voice came over the announcements saying " Will you please send Jennifer to the office, her dad is here to pick her up." I sat there confused for a moment and then I realized what was going on. "My mom's having a baby!!!" I yelled to others as I left the school.

My brother, who was 6 at that time, and I were waiting very impatiently at the hospital for hours, until finally we were sent home with our grandparents to wait for the news. At about 6, the phone rang and the first question that came to me was "Well, it is a boy or a girl?" My grandma smiled and said, "It's a girl!" I was thrilled! I began skipping around the house yelling "I have a baby sister!!" My brother, devastated by the idea of not having a little brother, laid his head down and began to cry.

Over the years, I think my brother has become used to having a little sister as have I
I hope she has a great Birthday!
I LOVE YOU JAMI!!!!!!
