Maureen

 Today is my Big Sister’s birthday.  A good day to remember a wonderful person.  She stopped celebrating at 64.  She died.  She missed a lot of stuff, good stuff.  Grandkids growing up and now getting married.  One grand child is engaged.  Maureen never met her as the grandchild was not born yet.  I hope they remember grandma at the wedding celebrations.  I called Maureen “Sis” probably because I could not talk very well.  She was my only sis as later siblings had not come along yet.  I used to preach stories about her but that only made her more popular than me.  So I gave that up to spare my fragile ego.  I hope that she is praying for me to go to heaven.  But since I was a little brat and spoiled, so she says, she might not want eternity with me.  This lifetime was enough.  But saints forgive, so I am betting on her good behavior in the prayer department.  Hi Sis!
