Elizabeth, my older sister, has always been there for me. She's one of the few people I ask advice of, she carved the path for me as we grew up discovering and learning lessons which she then passed on to me and she's the model I look up to.
Although we are close sisters, it's impossible to know everything about her. I recently read an alumni article written by her former university, Medaille College, about Elizabeth, and through reading it a bit more of the determined and wonderful person she is was revealed to me.
Too often in life we lose track of the things that matter most and don't express how we feel about family and close friends - I'm guilty of this too. So, I wanted to use my blog to publicly praise my older sister and to tell anyone who reads this how very proud I am of her hard work at both universities she graduated from (Medialle College and New York University).

| I admire her tenacity in everything she does. Elizabeth has always seemed to have a constant faith that everything will work out and she always believes that nothing is unachievable if you work hard enough. Her fearlessness has been such an inspiration to me and everyone who meets her. Elizabeth is such a motivational and loving person who I'm fortunate enough to call my sister. |
How nice to read such a loving, supportive post!
ReplyDeleteI am proud of both of you and of the choices you have made in life and of all the successes you have had thus far.
And ditto for the achievements your brother has made and the goals he has set for himself.
I am so proud of my three children. All I can add to this is a, "Well done!" and keep it going! Never give up.
xxxooo

Sap! :) I love you too. I have the best family in the world. Thanks so much for the sweet words. I think most of my tenacity comes from the old adage of "sink or swim", and I'm a natural swimmer, so there you have it :) lots of love, xoxo E
