My niece Ashley turns twenty-one today. I can't believe it. It seems like just yesterday my Dad was picking me up from school to go to the hospital to see my new baby niece. I was so happy when he told me "it's a girl", the little sister I always wanted! Growing up Ashley & her brother Jacob lived with us so it really was like having a little brother & sister. Ashley & I have always stayed very close, she now lives in Oregon but we text everyday! I just wanted to wish her a VERY happy 21st birthday...
"Ashley, I hope you have an amazing birthday, you deserve nothing but love & happiness. I love you more & more everyday, I am so proud of you. I couldn't of asked for a better little "sister", it's been so fun watching you grow up. It means so much to me that you always find a way to see Rylie, whether it's driving up to Washington or flying down for her 1st birthday. It really feels like you've been a part of her life and that means the world to me -so thank you! I want you to remember to always follow your heart (& dreams), you can do anything you put your mind to. We are always here for you. I love you so much,
Happy Birthday Ash!"
