I have the bestest baby sister.

[SeattleGirl]

No, she's not really a baby any more, but I'm 12 years older than her, so.....

Anyway, tomorrow would have been our mom's 73rd birthday (mom passed away in February). Karen had gotten a gift certificate from her job, for a local nursery. She said she wandered around, trying to figure out what to buy (she wanted to plant something in honor of mom). What she ended up doing was buying 5 rose bushes, one for each of us, so we could each plant one for mom.

:sniff: I love my sister. :loveya:

1. What a great idea.

My sister is 33 and have a 2 year old boy.She's 8 years younger than me so I still call her my baby

sister too. :)

5. Isn't it, though?

I was almost in tears when she told me what she had done.

Little sisters are sometimes the best people.
