Friday night Tatum and I left the house for the first time.  My little sister, Ashley, played chauffeur.  Alexis and Layla [her daughter] came too.  I didn’t even realize this until just now….but the last time I saw Alexis was at her baby shower.  Time flies.

The Hisky/Temple family Christmas card...starring my child! 😉

Tatum's bottle intake has doubled. My growing girl is hungry.

I’m so very proud of Ashley.  She’s a full-time student at the University of Memphis, works at MPC, and lives in a house paid for with money she makes herself.  Her boyfriend is a stand up guy who treats her with the utmost respect.  My sister is kind, smart as a whip, mature, responsible, and makes positive life choices  ‘Adopted’ by me when she was only 14, I’ve never doubted her for a second.  It’s an honor being her older sister.  Hopefully she’s been able to learn a thing or two from me– especially what NOT to do– as she transitions into adulthood.  Ashley, the three of us love you very much.  ❤

With infinite love, gratitude, and respect,

Sloane
