Thanks for 25 great years, sis! I love you, and am so grateful that you're my sister.
We, too, are wonderfully thankful for 25 years ago today. We resonate with each of the 25 things you appreciate her for--and to throw in one more as we move into Erin's 26th year, we are delighted that she has such a delightfully warm and positive relationship with her grandparents--all four of us. We love you, Erin!

Is it acceptable for a mom to say how proud she is of her daughters? I sure am.

We too love your sister--and the picture you included is SO sweet!! We had the privilege of spending her 25th birthday with her DAD!!! We had 6 wonderful days with him, helping us explore our adopted state of Arizona. He left this morning--having loved being here but I'm sure with a new appreciation for the Oregon we all love (Just not all the rain!!) Love to you all!! Kakee
