None of us will ever forget the Christmas that Stacy joined our family. We woke up to find our parents had gone to the hospital and we weren't allowed to open presents in the morning as usual. That was tough for us to understand, since we were all under the age of 10. However, Stacy has more than made up for those few missed hours of present opening.
Here is a list of things I love to remember about Stacy:
1. She was such a cute baby. She had jet black hair and a lot of it.
2. We called her Bugsy for a while because she loved to squish the bugs outside.
3. She had a tiny pair of cowboy boots that she loved...and they were adorable.
4. One year she got a Mickey Mouse t-shirt from Grandma Closner and she said she didn't like it. Grandma took it back.
5. She's never been afraid to say what she thinks and share her opinion.
6. She loves to laugh...and she has a laugh that fills the room.
7. She quickly grew taller than all of us.
8. She and Christy and Andy were inseparable.
9. She was born on Christmas...and every year growing up she demanded to celebrate her birthday on Christmas.
10. Now that she's all grown up she is such a fun sister. She is always happy, smiling, and telling jokes. She wears tall heels, shirts with sequins, and big jewelry. She has an infectious laugh (I know I've already mentioned this, but you've got to hear it) and she keeps us all smiling.
I love you Stacy! Have another happy birthday!
