For My Sister Joanne

For the Relay for Life Card Challenge Two Click HERE

Hello Ladies,

Sorry I am so late posting today, my internet was down all morning.  Today I want to show you a little digi I found somewhere on the net and as soon as I saw it, memories of my dear sister Joanne came flooding back to me.  My sister Joanne was 7 years older than me and she taught me to read when I was about 4 years old.  We used to "play school" she was the teacher, I was the student, she was so good at it that I learned reading and basic arithmetic before I ever started school.  When she was an adult she became a kindergarden teacher and taught many children how to read.  Most of my memories of my sister are of her with a child on her lap and a book in her hands.  So this is for you Joanne on the 10th anniversary of your passing.  I am older than you now.  I miss you, I love you.  You live in my heart.  

  Thank you for stopping by today.

Hugs
