Lu is 25

HAPPY BIRTHDAY AUNT LU! My sister, Aunt Lu, is 25. She's a young thing. A wipper snapper. A retired teacher, now tutor. She likes math, and TV. She enjoys country music as well as Harry Potter.

{me and Lu}

Growing up we played 'the Thing' {which was our fancy term for playing house}. We lived to play the Thing.

Our mama would say, "Girls lets go to the pool."
And we would respond "No, mama we're playing the Thing."

The Thing was serious. We drove imaginary mini vans and had unnatural numbers of children. 

Come to think of it we are still playing the Thing, but its the real live Thing {minus a few children}. And neither one of us has a mini-van yet.

Anyhow, we love you Aunt Lu. Hope you have a great day.
