My Aunt Sarah....baby me. ....and my mom! the year is 1947
- I grew up with my aunt Sarah. Her parents were my grandparents.
- I have many wonderful memories of those early years!
- I never called her "aunt", she was more like a sister, growing up in the same household.
- It is so odd to me now, but I don't remember celebrating any birthdays with Sarah. I think my grandma (my beloved grandma) was not big on birthdays.
- I remember things like winter ice skating together on our backyard rink. Summer swimming at the Wahpeton City Swimming Pool. Going with her to her best friend's home (Janice Bjornson) and loving it. Sitting with her and the family around the dining room table for the Sunday dinner after church. (There was always church and there was always a special dinner on Sundays) We are seven years apart so most of my memories are the times we had as a family.
- Sarah is a woman of faith, my friend and my aunt. Happy Birthday Sarah! Love you!
