This Weeks toot goes out to a special lady, not just special but my Sister n-law. So special, that at times I find it stupid when I say "this is my sister n-law". Because for most people the n-laws are more dreadful than they are enjoyable, and I honestly think of my sister n-law, Leslie, as my sister. I have always thought as my husbands family as my family. They have always included me in everything, even when we were just dating. And are truly wonderful parents. They remind me so much of mine, selfless and will do anything for you. Luckily, the kindness they offer was passed down to their offspring =). Leslie is probably hands down the funniest person I know. I don't think we have ever had a conversation where she hasn't made me laugh. She is just one of those people who you enjoy being around and love to talk to. She's a down girl and loves to have fun and it's such an honor to have her as my sister.
This is Leslie with her daughter, Emma.
While I am unsure Leslie would appreciate me posting this picture in particular =), I felt it's the best picture because it represents the 2 of the things I know she loves most : Emma and running! For some months now, Leslie has been dating Justin. From day one when they started dating it was different. Leslie was different. Even her mom said, there is something different this time, I have never seen her like this. And while it did not take that long for Leslie to feel that Justin might be the one, it did not take long for Justin to feel that way either. On valentines day Justin proposed to Leslie!!! While It is not my place to share personal details in her life, I will just say that if there is anyone I know deserves what Leslie has found, it is her! I am so Happy for you sis, more than words can say. And I know that you and Emma are going to be so happy starting this new life with Justin, I can't wait to get to know him better.And what I think is the sweetest thing out of this whole thing, is that Justin had asked Emma a couple weeks ago, if it would be alright if he asked her Mom to marry him. How stinking cute is that? I am so proud of her for keeping it a secret. She knew this whole time and did not say a word! Emma said yes btw =).
