For Taylor and Teddi the story is different. On May 7th of this year, Taylor celebrated her twentieth birthday, and on May 19th a three year old sister "flitted" into her life. I'm not so sure how I would have reacted gaining a sister at age twenty. (At times I know our big kids think we are crazy!) However, this I know for sure -- Taylor has always been a wonderful big sister, and in the eyes of her new sister --she is a delight, sheer delight.

Taye, thank you for welcoming your sister with open arms just as you welcomed your baby brother for your sweet sixteen! Thank you for going along with my China dream. Thank you for the beautiful example of a young woman that you are to Teddi. Thank you for being the absolute best big sister. I pray that you will come to know the preciousness of a sister to sister relationship like the one that I have enjoyed for many, many years.
To my own sister, I am forever thankful for your love. To my daughters, now sisters, may you know the same.
Blessings~
Tina

Well Tina...you did it again...you made me tear up, you seem to be able to squeeze tears out easier than anyone. Doesn't it bless your heart to see the older kids fall madly and deeply in love with Teddi. Mark is home for a week (i need to do a post on him) and to see him with Max makes me about melt.
Love you my TX friend,
Kim
if we ever make it to your neck of the woods, we need to get together.

Hey Tina! I finally sat down long enough to check out your blog. You have a beautiful family. Thanks for sharing your amazing journey. Taylor is an amazing young lady. She really made Melanie feel welcome at Journey. We will be out of town this weekend. Miss you on Sunday. Thanks, Lisa Randolph
