Abigail Rose

Abigail turned 13 on Sunday. Abby and Silas, only 13 months apart, have been best friends since Silas learned to crawl. At times they were partners in crime. Silas, an aspiring writer, asked me if he could type up a card for her. This is what he wrote to his sister:


Dear Abigail ,
You are a blessing, and a sister, friend, helper and commander. It is an honor to be the brother of such a magnificent girl. I wish you much love and joy.
From your generously loved brother,
Silas.

Not ever having had brothers and sisters, it is amazing to me as I watch the realtionships between my children.

  3. That sounds like something his Grandpa Green would have done. He would be so proud of his grandchildren Here I am crying at work.
