LIFE
Today is my sister's birthday. I admire my sister for alot of reasons -
She is a great SISTER. She is loyal and honest and tells me like it is. She is generous with her home, her abilities and her love. We can talk about anything from the casual to the deep.
She is a true FRIEND, never afraid to tell me what I need to hear, whether I like it or not : ), always willing to listen and someone I can really count on to be there for the long haul.
She is a godly WIFE. She is an example of tireless service. I love the relationship she has with her husband. They work well together as a team both in their home and in their ministry. They have fun together. They tease each other and they understand each other.
She is an excellent MOTHER. You can often tell the caliber of parenting in a home by the way the children interact with others. Beth's children are so great. They are respectful and obedient, they play hard and love to have fun, they love each other and are excited to be with others.
She is a talented HOMEMAKER. I believe that a woman's home should reflect her love for her family. Beth keeps a fantastic home that is comfortable and welcoming, current and creative. She has an eye for design and is not afraid to put in the work to keep it fresh and interesting. She keeps a clean home, but doesn't get stressed out about the kids being kids. She lets them feel comfortable at home playing with their toys and teaches them how to clean up after themselves. She and Nate are the most hospitable people I know. Always welcoming people into their home, whether they were invited or not, and always ready to share a meal.
She is a masterful MUSICIAN. When Beth sits at the piano, she owns it, from the first note to the last. She is musical, expressive and technically excellent. She is a great teacher as evidenced by how many students would LOVE to study with her.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY BETH! I LOVE YOU!!
