October 30, 1989 my sweet sister Alyssa was born. Although me and lyss are 6 years apart we have always been friends, we have so much in common and always have.
When we were much younger Alyssa wanted to copy everything I did. If my mom bought her something that she really didn't like all I would have to do is say I thought it was cute and she would start wearing it. She always wanted to try and look like me (who knows why) but she was always so sweet. The funny thing is is that I am the one who looks up to her now! She is such a good wife, sister, friend, daughter, photographer and soon to be mommy. She has so much energy and is so good at making people feel good about themselves.
It breaks my heart that I cannot be with her on her birthday because I love her so much! I pray that Justin will be able to get into law school in Arizona so I can see her more:)
Here is a picture to show off Alyssa's fun and crazy personality that she has had since the beginning. My mom always said Alyssa was an easy kid!
Alyssa is not just my sister she is my best friend. She is always boosting me up and making me feel so good about myself. I think she should have been the older sister!
She has made 3 visits to me in Arizona in the last year and I love the time we get to spend together.
Me and lyss have had soooo many good memories together especially over the last 5 years and I know that will continue forever! I feel so lucky that I get to be her sister but I would like to think that even if we weren't blood we would still be such good friends!
Lyssie Loo I LOVE YOU! I hope you have a great 20th birthday because you deserve it! You are so wonderful and I am so sad I can't be with you on your birthday but I hope you know how much I love you and how important you are to me!

Val, thank you so much! I just woke up and listened to the voice mail you left and came to check out your blog. Well you were the first one to make me cry since I turned 20! Good job! Lol that is a good thing, though. I can't believe all those nice things you said about me. I am so happy to have you in my life! You're my closest friend. Thanks for being a good example and friend. And for making my birthday so good already even though you're not here. I love you Val!
