Sending some LOVE to Chi-town

Happy birthday in January (sorry I'm late) to my dear little bro Tom. He's 17 now. Wow, only one more year of high school after this? It can't be.

Happy birthday to my sweet little sis, Celia. She is 15 now. We are 16+ years apart and we live in different parts of the country, but I've always felt close to my little sis. We pick up right where we left off the last time each time we see each other.

Happy birthday to my awesome stepmom, Lisa. She is such a great person. She is super smart, generous, beautiful, CALM, patient, a fun sailboat captain, a great Mom to my little brothers and sister, and the list goes on an on...and the best stepmom anyone could ever ask for.

All of these people live very far away from me, in the great city of Chicago. I wish we could see each other more often, but I cherish the time we do get to spend with one another.

Love and miss you guys.

Here are some old photos that I loved stumbling across. Great memories.

The last time Tom hugged Celia? Just kidding!
