A very happy birthday to my big sister Kathleen! I joked recently that I’ll be forever grateful that there is someone older than me in the world, as stupid as that was, but at some level it’s true. Not having had a kid sibling myself, as the youngest, means there is no one in the world who I can remind of the time she got a marble stuck up her nose.
(Okay, I didn’t ever do that. but it would have been Kath who took me to the emergency room if I had.)
