Happy Birthday Sarah!


When I lived in Provo and you were in Salt Lake,
An hour's drive is all it would take.
Some shopping and lunch date,
Then back home so dinner wasn't late.
Nova Scotia and Texas aren't close at all,
I just have to settle for a weekly call.
I'm so sad that I couldn't be there on your special day,
We should have planned a girls' get-a-way.
You can't really leave your new nursing son,
Maybe we can go on a trip when you turn 31!

You go Ms. Poet! Happy Birthday to Sarah! I really wish you were coming with Jason this weekend too. We really miss you guys. We watch the family DVD a lot to be sure that none of the kids forget who their cousins are. We can't wait for Christmas!!

Thanks so much! You made my day! I had no idea you were so poetically gifted. I'm going to miss you next week.
