A significant 30...

A significant 30 happens today, my older sister Tricia is having a birthday!  Now, I know she's not exactly excited about turning 30.  In fact, she's probably thrilled with me that I'm telling you her age...but she'll be fine!

I have been SO incredibly blessed with the family that I have, and Tricia is a prime example of that.  I am so proud of her & proud to say that she's the most amazing older sister in the world!  Being here in Kenya makes me realize all the more just how much I miss her!  I love her like crazy and am so thankful for her.

Tricia, you've taught me so much.  You've always been an incredible example to me of what it means to persevere, what it means to trust and not doubt, what it means to embrace life regardless of what comes your way, and what it means to just enjoy being here (wherever here is)!  Life would simply not be the same without you in it!  Thanks for leading the way for me and setting an incredible example to follow after.

I love you more and more everyday!  Happy Birthday sister!!!
