Happy Birthday Big Sister

…. or You’ll Always Be Older Than Me, Hah!

It is my big sister’s __ th birthday today.

Dad, Mom, Mary and Grammy Parsons.

Mary’s first birthday party at Grammy Parsons’s house.

Here’s some birthday party advice from a fellow who shares your birth date. You wouldn’t know him though, he was born in 1593.

George Herbert

George Herbert

“Drink not the third glass, which thou canst not tame, when once it is within thee” – kind of similar to the Somerset Maugham idea of the perfect measure – stop while it still feels good!! If only it was that easy.

Here’s George immortalized in stained glass (because it’s all about the glass for me these days)

Birthdays come and birthdays go, But may you always find, The ones to come are better far, Than those you left behind.

Happy Birthday Sissie
