Wendy Sue,

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! How do I begin to describe all of the wonderful memories that make me think of you. From hat fashion show birthday parties, sleepovers that lasted until 9pm when you had to walk me across the street because I was homesick, block parties, road trips to San Diego, visits to Stu's office, to our most recent memory, Chicago.  You have been a part of my life since the day I was born and I feel so lucky to have you guys as a second family.  You are and always have been a second mother to me and every time we are together, I feel a piece of my mom is with us. 

One memory that sticks out from the Teesdale days is you and my mom talking on the phone everyday for hours and hours.  I remember thinking, what could they possibly still have to talk about!?  Now, Morggy and I are doing the same thing... Daily phone calls, each lasting longer than the last. The friendship that you and my mom had, taught me what it is to have a best friend and I couldn't be happier that Morggy and I are following that path ever so closely. 

You are one of the most creative, gracious, talented, caring, courageous, strong, funny, beautiful (... the list could go on forever) women that I know.  I know that every moment spent with you will be filled with laughter, gossip, great meals (my favorite spaghetti included) and so much more.

I thank you for being an inspiration to me throughout my life.

Happiest of Birthdays, Doll!

Sending you so much love,
Samy
