Here are a few things I’ve learned over the years from my little sister:
1. Girl’s can play with Hot Wheels…..even until their 12.
2. Don’t talk back to mom….it gets ya more spankin’s.
3. Don’t be serious ALL the time.
4. Just because you’re mad….don’t take it out on everyone else.
5. Give your best effort towards the gifts God has given you.
As most of you know…My sister will be heading off to college tomorrow. I’ve seen her grow up from a tom boy….to a beautiful lady. Our fights over the years have changed from barbies….to clothes and hair straighteners.
Her senior year in high school, she debated on playing soccer or track. I was so angry..lol. She is very talented in the area of athletics and God has blessed her tremendously. So, with a great deal of coaxing….she decided she’d play. In the end, she went to the regional track meet and “ran her best time” (wink – for Pam). I am so proud of her and everything she has accomplished. I know that God has great plans for her and that she will excel greatly as a Wayland Baptist University Pioneer soccer and track team member.
Pam – this is to you.
We’ve been through everything over the past 18 years. We’ve fought, we’ve played, we’ve imagined, we’ve worked…..we’ve done many a chore…lol. But through it all, we’ve actually become very close. I will miss you while you’re gone, but God has amazing things in store for your life. Don’t take anything for granted. Every game you win….every race you finish….give all the glory to God. After all, not everyone is blessed enough to play sports in college….and get paid for it. I wish you the best and don’t forget to call me…lol.
God Bless and God Speed..lol.
