Here's to Bonnie! My beautiful friend, Sister in Jesus, sister-in-law, enemy (just kidding) and shopping comrade! My life would be very, very dull without her. After all I wouldn't have anybody to tell me 4 hour dreams, anyone to spaz on me and give me bruises, anyone to read me really long poems about weird things, anyone to tell me all about the boys she likes, or have anyone to shop at night with.
I remember when William and I were dating and I lived with their family. Bonnie and I started out sharing a room and realized that it was not a smart thing to do. I ended up bunking with Bernice on the top bunk in the little girls room since that made for a little more peace and sanity. Boy oh boy am I glad that stage is over. We used to fight soooooo much. I am really glad that we both have matured and are able to be close as sisters now.
She is 17 and I am 26. It's weird to remember when she was a little girl and used to hug me after church. I wonder how the future will be for us? William was married at 18 and Bonnie is only a year away from that. I guess I don't really see that happening anytime soon, but I do hope she finds a great man. Someone who has a lot of time to listen and can put up with being "oodied"! :)
