Beauty in the Ordinary

This is not about being brilliant, or extraordinary, it's not about wanting to be famous, or making headlines, or trying to impress...this about sharing a 'gift' each day with the world...to lift the spirit of people when they read this blog, to show them the beauty in the ordinary.
"And above all, watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you because the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places. Those who don't believe in magic will never find it." Raold Dahl

Over the next couple of weeks both my girls will
be celebrating their birthdays.  They were born two years, all but a week
apart... to the day.  
Eldest daughter left today to visit with younger daughter so that they might
celebrate their birthdays together (in a rather nasty snow-storm I might add!).

I love this.
I love that they haven't allowed distance to separate them one
little bit. They were each other's best friend growing up and they both actively
continue that relationship.

They first were separated when Lindsay went to Pittsburg to University and we were living in Atlanta.  Then we moved with Jessica to Thailand.
Jessica then went to Ottawa and Lindsay to New York.
Then Lindsay went to London and Jessica followed a year later.
Then Jessica moved to Toronto and Lindsay stayed in London.
Then Lindsay moved to Toronto and Jessica moved to Miami.
(...are you getting the picture here...)

Eldest daughter has big plans for younger this weekend...can't divulge, might spoil the surprise.  
I love that too.  That they care deeply about each other's happiness.

Hurray for sisters.

There's another birthday that Sis and I are
celebrating...our One-Year of Blogging.
Happy Birthday to Us!
