I woke this morning thinking of you Kathy.

Hard to believe you have been gone over 5.5 years.

Today you would have been 60.

Though we didn't always get along 

and would go weeks without talking

I knew you were always there

whenever I called.

We have shared many joys and sorrows together,

celebrated the births of our baby's,

said good-bye to Dad & Mom

we have laughed and cried together

we have always been sisters.

I woke to thinking of you this morning,

hard to believe that I can't just grab the phone

and give you a call to share some news.

Or to cry because someone has hurt me

some how, some way

or to laugh about something that happened.

You would be so proud of your sweet daughter

She brings such joy to so many.

She knows how to have fun

and has a tender heart.

She misses you so much.

I wish I lived closer to her so we could

some things together that you would have done with her

like going to a movie or shopping.

You would be so proud of her.

I love you and miss you Kathy.
