The Beav's Birthday

 The little beaver has turned 18. She was nick-named "The Beav" because when her big adult teeth first came in, the front teeth seemed much too large for her little face. Those days are long gone and she has turned into a beautiful young woman. We celebrated her birthday by going out to dinner at P.F. Changs.
 We are all getting older, yet I still feel like I am in high school right along with Marissa. She probably feels that way too since I frequent Brighton high more than I should. Marissa was nominated for homecoming queen, was the chairman for American Problems, and participated in the annual Olympic assembly. Since I enjoy supporting her in these activities, not to mention the 3 sporting events in which she participates, my face has become recognizable at BHS. And believe it or not, some of the boys think I'm "HOT!" Some legends never die. Although the boys may like to see me roaming the halls on a frequent basis, Marissa pointed out that I wore the same outfit two days in a row and I have been banned from the school.  Kids these days!
Happy Birthday Marissa. I am happy to be your wise, older sister and I thank you for putting up with me as your second mom. I love you!
And after Marissa read this post, she had to e-mail me this picture from my birthday last year...I guess we  are more alike than she would have hoped. Isn't she lucky?
