Well, another day has passed. Today is another Birthday in our family. Collette was born 32 years ago today...what a great day! She weighed in at 10 pounds, almost doing us both in but we were lucky and survived. Collette was a darling little baby and always had shiny eyes and a cute smile. She was a very easy child; very easy going and she liked to entertain herself. She had an imaginary friend, "the other Collette" and she liked to talk to her and include her in playtime and imaginary skits and scenarios. That probably contributed to Collette going on and becoming a High School State Champion in Speech. Her great memory makes her also a natural in Drama. Her dad really enjoyed seeing her in high school Musicals and plays. I remember one time when everything went wrong on stage but Collete just picked it up with her acting ability and saved the scene. We loved it!! Yes, Collette, I must say has many wonderful attributes and I admire her in many ways. She is probably the MOST DETERMINED person I have ever known. She has accomplished many things in her 32 years and all of them she has completed with dignity and honor. She is a great wife, mother, sister and daughter. She has excelled in her profession and amazes me with her counted cross-stitch Samplers she has created. She is also a great cook and enjoys cooking from scratch, probably because it is healthier and probably because it is 'cheaper'. Yes, Collette, thank you for being a examplary person in our family!! Happy 32nd Birthday!!!
Love ~ mom
