My Little Sister, Kelli

kelli was the kind of sister everyone would dream of having in their life. She was so funny. She kept all my brothers and sisters on their toes, she always had a comeback.
The last time we were together was so much fun, even though it was a difficult time with our Dad. We laughed so hard tears were streaming down our faces. We were at the hospital sitting with our Dad as he slept and trying to be quiet so we would not wake him. We covered our mouths and had to run down the hall to pee - we were not sure we would make it in time. It was a great afternoon. We both commented that we hoped Dad would not remember any of our secrets that day.
I am so thankful that Kelli knew how much we all loved her. I admire the amount of living she did in her 44 years. Her spirit will continue to inspire me to live to the fullest with lots of laughter and love.
