Good
morning world yeah I know I say morning when it may not be morning
where you are but it is here and what a morning it is nice and cool
and wet, Tim had to take Jessica's car to work due to the wet weather
and the fact that I need my car to go to the doctors. Nothing wrong
with me just need a form filled in for the RMS (roads & maritime
service).
Anyway
today is a special day in the family it is my sister Sandra's
birthday she is 37 today, bloody hell.
I
can remember the night she was born, I was staying at my grandparents
house while mum was in hospital and I was in bed already when dad
turned up on his way home from the hospital to tell nan & pop and
me about the baby. I remember hearing dad's voice so I got out of
bed and walked out to the loungeroom where he was and tells me I have
a new baby sister, Sandra Mae.
I
also remember going back to bed and feeling super excited, I was
nearly 15 at the time.
I
think somehow I knew this new baby would be like my own baby, I loved
taking care of her and helping mum with her. As she grew into a
toddler and mum had David to tend to I would look after Sandy more.
She would come into my bed at night and cuddle up to me this she did
for a long time and I have to say I liked it.
When
she was only a tiny baby though I would take her into my room in her
bounce and while I listened to music and I listened to loud music.
I
remembered taking her with me when I walked around to the shops for
mum, in fact I took both Sandy and Dave as mum had this big old pram
and I would put both of them into it and walk around to the shops.
Our
sister Jeannie was so excited about a baby sister that she took Sandy
to school for show & tell, Jeannie was around 9 at the time.
For
as long as I can remember Sandy was my baby girl, I often as a
teenager like to think of her as my baby, she was the first baby I
had fall off my bed.............lol, thankfully she wasn't hurt and I
just picked her up and settled her down, I didn't want to tell mum
she had rolled off the bed............
So
baby girl happy birthday from you big sister, ok you have 3 big
sisters but the one who is a mummy/sister.........love you sis
Happy Birthday to your sister. It's great that you love her so.
ReplyDeleteLove,

Dagan is fifteen years older than his half-brother. Quite a gap. I can see why you feel like a mother/sister. :)
ReplyDeleteYes there is 16 years between me and Dave as well
DeleteDearest Jo-Anne,
ReplyDeleteThat is enough difference for feeling like it was your own baby. My youngest sister is only 9 years younger and at that age it is not quite the same.
Sending you hugs and wishing her happy birthday!

When I took her out shopping with me many people thought she was my baby
DeleteHappy Birthday to your sister. Sure hope she had a wonderful day.
ReplyDeleteAs far as I know she did thanks
DeleteAlthough we've never met, I feel as if I know you and your family. It's a good feeling :)
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to your baby sister!
I feel the same way about many of my blog friends, so thank you
DeleteBirthday wishes- and could you flesh out for us Yankees what Roads and Maritime Service" is and what they do?
ReplyDeleteFirst thanks for birthday wishes, secondly the RMS is like your DMV except they deal not only with cars but boats and such does that help
DeleteNope, it's morning where I am. Which reminds me...I really should do something constructive.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday wishes all around!
Any excuse for cake works for me.
Yes I like cake, it is the best thing about a birthday although for the last few birthdays I have not had cake as I didn't get myself one and no one else did either
DeleteWow big thank you sis you have always been like my 2nd mum even to this day i love u so much my beautiful big sis xxoo
