21 years young!

Friends! I am writing this post with excitement and a smile upon my face! For tomorrow I will turn a year older than today! What the? 21? Wow I am getting so old as some would say, how about mature? I think that sounds better! I have never been so grateful for what these past 21 years have brought me! I am special, I get to celebrate it with my best friend and second half! My twin! Kelthy Ann I sure do love you! Thank you for setting such a great example to me and everyone we encounter. You are beautiful inside and out and your spirit is freakin contagious! I think the best birthday present ever is getting to celebrate it with you! I can't wait to see what the future has for us! Thanks for always having my back, putting a smile on my face, and still wearing the same clothes as me! Happy Happy Birthday!

The journey of my new smile...
