Lets go to lunch!


Let's pretend you and I are out to lunch.
Oh my goodness we are having so much fun!

 I am eating a yummy salad

and you eating a chicken sandwich.

Can you just smell it?


 You begin to ask me about my family and especially my sisters. 

You wonder why we began 
Your Sister's Circle 
and you ask me 
How do you possible have time to for this?

Then I tell you to get another dirty Diet Coke and listen for a minute....


 Why they are so special?
 Why they are so incredible? 
Why would I take this adventure with them?

We are not perfect! 
Far from it -
but 
WE KNOW 
in our hearts that a 
WOMAN'S ROLE 
is DIVINE!!! 

di·vine1
diˈvīn/
adjective
  1. of, from, or like God or a god.
    "heroes with divine powers"
    • .
  2. informaldated
    excellent; delightful.




And if we can help each other see that 
....haven't we accomplished a lot???

That is why we do what we do.... 
We want others to see what we see in each other! 

So I begin sharing about each of my sissies...

 to open your eyes

THEN YOU CAN SEE
why the sisters around 
YOU 
are 
so amazing
 and wonderful 
and delightful!
We need each other! We need support and love, and kindness.
No more judging, comparing and self-pity.
That is the OPPOSITE plan!

We like our Savior's plan better!
That is why we are here...


KERI-
#1 
{I like her sayings on the wall next to her curly hair}
Keri is very compassionate.
 She loves to help others and and would give her left shoulder, her right arm, 
her left leg to help someone in need. 

If we needed anything she would be there in a hurry! No question. And she would have a game plan, written out agenda and
 it would be completely organized! 
She is passionate about her children. 
I love how she loves the details of their lives. 

She has a wonderful testimony of her Savior and you can feel it when she talks. 
Ker-Bear you are loving, kind 
and the best big sister.:)
{Cute little clover... Keri's only daughter}

KRISTI-
#3 
Kristi can hold her own! 
She has had a rough ride but no one would ever know it! She doesn't use the "victim" card....ever! 
Which is amazing! 
I said that Keri would do anything for you ...Kristi is the exact same way. She would give you the shirt off her back even when she doesn't have the money to replace it. She is truly a giver!

If you want a good laugh...hang around Kristi for a few minutes. She will have you rolling. 
Her humor heals our family. 

And she has raised 2 incredible children. 
They are just like her!
{Kristi Loves to crochet!}
Kristi has always had the Light of Christ in her. You could just look at her and know she KNOW'S. 
She has always known. I love that.....
Tisti.....You are one of a kind!:)



AMIE-
{She has become quite the garnder!}
#4
Amie has always been quiet.
 But I have so say she is bold! She is firm. She is resilient! 

I love the way she mothers her children. They love her and respect her. They look up to her. She has taught them about responsibility and honor. Her boys and girls work hard! They know how too! 
(maybe Chad had something to do with it too)

Amie can keep the cleanest house! Seriously! She is one tidy lady... Her house is beautifully put together which I know brings her joy! It's where her family resides. She is creating a HOME. 


Amie has such an amazing powerful spirit. She is quiet when it comes to her testimony. It is hard for her to express how she feels 
but you can see it in her life. 
It is powerful!
Mamie- You are truly incredible!:)



And the very last of all the game-

ANNIE!
#5
Annie has always been the life of the party. She is still that way! Always wanting to do something, create something, go- go- go and do- do-do. 

Heavenly Father has trusted HER with 4 great kids. And she is doing fabulously!
  
Annie has become a refined Woman of Christ.
 It has been an amazing journey for her. And I have loved to watch her Light Shine bright. 
To see her and Mike together and the love they have for one another is truly inspiring!
 She is a gift to our family!
Nannie Goat- You're magnificent!:) 




ya know....
We are not any different from any of you!
 We are just ordinary women 
having extra-ordinary experiences!!

LIFE has a way of 
bring you those extra-ordinary experiences 
and we wouldn't change it for the world!


Now... my challenge to each of you sissies out there! Write a card, send a note, an email or text! 

Tell your "sister" out there why you love her! 
How has she inspired you? 

List all of her good qualities and take her to lunch! 
Have a chicken sandwich and a dirty diet coke and TALK!!!
We should praise each other! 

Lift and Share!
That is my challenge!
Lift a Life and Share!


Hugs times 5!
#2 out!

Now... Who really would like to go to lunch??
