Time and Tide wait for no man, but time always stands still for a woman of thirty. ~ Robert Frost

Happy Birthday to my sister Melissa who is turning 30 today!

Or…


…if she chooses, celebrating the first anniversary of her 29th birthday.


However, I think - having been there - that she will like 30 and all the years ahead of her; may they be filled with happiness, love, and wisdom.

In honor of her special day, here are 30 things I love about Melissa...

1. She is fashionable.
2. She indulges me in my Hello Kitty obsession
3. She is a super great Mom
4. She is strong
5. She likes to Read
6. She enjoys a good lemonade
7. She is a thoughtful gift giver
8. She always sends thank you notes
