Today my oldest niece Jillian turns 21. Happy Birthday Jill-Bill!
I remember how excited I was to be an aunt especially when I was allowed to change her diapers. I was only 7 years old and to be an aunt was the coolest thing ever. We are pretty tight because she is actually closer in age to me then any of my siblings are.
She brought joy to my family during a very dark time. She arrived two years to the day we lost my brother Shane. She came into the world to bring smiles back to my family. She was the only grandchild my father had the privilege of knowing here on earth. He adored her and even made her a bottle once so she would cuddle with grandpa. My sister wasn't very happy since she was trying to ween her from them. She was Grandpa's little angel!

Times have changed, she is growing up and plans to be married in two short months. Okay cheesy rhythm I didn't intend. She now adores Alex and has drove down here multiple times because she misses her baby. =)
Happy Birthday Jillian, we love you!
