mich, i just want you to know how much i love you. though we're many miles apart, i think of you daily. i have so many fond memories of our childhood together:

• our "apart-nip" in fruitvale
• roller blading up and down the halls in green roller blades 4 sizes to big for you
• your little bed in the storage closet
• dan with his winking eye
• your dust-buster
• giving our first talks in the trail kingdom hall
• ice-skating and watching fireworks in the park
• picnics in the snow
• me dressing you and matthew up like mice and performing at school :P
  
• all the summers we spent in smithers riding horses and bikes all over town
• the M&M lemonade stand
• strawberry picking
• spending afternoons on "the tommy" or at "the bathroom"
• becoming part of a family of 7 and having fun with more brothers and sisters
• our birdhouse dad built for us
• many a "shanty-town"
  
• my awesome dance choreographing skills
• the day Katrina was born
• playing that Titanic computer game... all 5 of us kids glued to the computer screen as you played
• playing in Malott down at the river and in the park
  
• the move to Vanderhoof and all the fun with our friends there
• many many many more memories....
  

...and then we were no longer together. you decided to move away, and its been only a few times we've seen each other in the past years. and i miss you. i miss your smile, your accent, your laugh, the sparkle in your eye, and the way you make me feel. its like a part of me is missing when we're apart.
so know i'm thinking of you today.
and not just cuz its the day you turn 20.
its just because.....
i love you.
