Roxanne's 24th Birthday


So my younger sister Roxanne turned 24 a few weeks ago. She always says to me if I were like you then I would have been married already with a child. What she should realize is, she isn't me and I adore her for who she is. I look up to Roxy in so many ways. She came out to live in Utah in January of 2007 and that was one of the best presents I could have ever received. I had been away from home for 6 years already before any family decided to come out here. Roxy decided to start attending aesthetician school at Dallas Roberts. She completed her schooling and became a licensed Aesthetician. She then started attending UVU and will now be graduating this April with a Bachelors in marketing. She already has a grown up job at Pinnacle Quality Insight in SLC as their new marketing director. I will be honest, I hate it but that's me being selfish. We just really miss her because we don't ever get to see her anymore. I love my Roxy Pants more than she will ever know. I am so proud of her and everything she has accomplished in her life. She is so dedicated to what's important, she is loving, kind, thoughtful, super smart and is a great friend and sister! She has been so fun to have out here. Roxanne has had a lot of trials in her life and I thank Heavenly Father for where she is now and how she has turned those trials into learning experiences. She is the best Aunt to my boys. She really loves them so much and probably takes more pictures of them than I do as their mother. I am grateful for her support of me as a mother of three and I just want her to know that I love her dearly!
