10 Things I Love About Caleb

Happy Birthday! I love having you for my brother and here are 10 things I love about you:

1. You're my brother.

2. I love how you've remained committed to using your gift of photography to earn a living. Gutsy, smart, unregrettable. Hard, though.

3. A loving uncle who appreciates the beauty of my children. You're willing to play and run.

4. You remind me of Dad. I'll never forget a conversation with you and the mannerism struck me. This picture at the parents' anniversary reminds me of Dad's high school senior picture. Funny how we look like our parents as we age.

5. You know everything. I remember you telling Mom something about sewing. The same woman who had been sewing for 20 years. I thought you were quite foolish at the time. Funny thing is, the older you get, the more it becomes true--may eventually know everything.

6. The world has no boundaries for you. I appreciate how you still keep your options open when it comes to where you live. And who you love. I don't even know Helen that well and she seems like a wonderful person. I think it's because I can see how she impacts you.

7. I don't have to argue politics or religion with you. We pretty much agree. That's nice for once.

8. I love your music, the songs you write and your voice.

9. Your sense of style.


10. I love you because you're my brother and I love you because of who you are.

Hope you had a good birthday!

Love, your sister.
