Dear Josie,
I hope you're not sad that I don't kiss your cheeks and bend your ear anymore.
Or call you Fluffy.

After I had my own baby, those mushy affections were taken from you and planted on little Leyla. Suddenly you seemed too old to treat that way. I felt a bit guilty, but I know you were most likely relieved. I do sometimes accidentally call Leyla "Josie", though.

Today, on your 18th birthday, I want to tell you there will always be a soft place in my heart for my baby sister.

Happy Birthday Josie!
Love, your oldest sis



P.S. That was a fun party tonight.

Happy Birthday to Josie! Cute pics. How old was Leyla in that first one? She looks so precious.
