Tribute Tuesday: Emily

Wayne [my sweet manfriend] is the host of Tribute Tuesday. Head over to his blog to see more lovely tributes.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


You fixed my hair when I was young.

You showed me how to properly spray myself with perfume.

You asked me to help you dress up the Barbies in Grandma's basement even though we were both too old to be doing such.

You taught me which music was "cool."

You made sure I was prepared to make friends at band camp when I was scared out of my mind.

You [tried] to teach me how to dance with boys.

We had a rough patch the year before you moved in with Andrew.

Once you moved in with him, you slowly got back to your old, happy self.

I was the first one you called after Andrew proposed.

That fact made me feel so special, and still does.

You asked me to be your Maid of Honor.

I'm so very happy for you and Andrew.

You've always been my older sister, but now you're my friend, too.

I love you, Emily.
