Sandy and Susan were not twins, but they were very close in age with Susan just 17 months older. While quite different people, I have observed the closeness between these two sisters despite the 1,700 miles between their homes. Sandy adores Susan’s children, Christine 19 and Tyler 11, and has delighted in her visits and vacations with them. I saw this sisterly bond progress to another level last year through Sandy’s pregnancy and the twins’ birth. Susan was truly excited for Sandy when she learned her sister’s longtime maternal dream finally coming true. Davey and Benji’s birth made Susan an aunt for the first time, and when she visited our home in April, you could see the role filled her with joy. Happy Birthday Aunt Susan. We look forward to seeing you and the rest of the family after Christmas.
