Auntie Ruth is my Dad's younger sister. Today is her birthday. (yes, we have lots of September birthdays in our family! :) Auntie loves babies. Here she is holding Cole in the first 24 hours of his life. She spent many months of the earlier part of this year making a blanket for him, and it now sits proudly in his nursery.
My Auntie is a quiet, yet fierce person of faith who loves her family dearly. I remember growing up doing fun things like going to Wild Rivers, eating at the chicken place at Knott's Berry Farm and having photo shoots at her house with the cousins...she always took the time to invest in me in little and big ways. She still does today, even though her "little" niece is now in her 30s :).
Happy Birthday Auntie. I know that you may not like this semi-public profession of birthday wishes, but I couldn't help myself ;). You are beautiful and gracious and passionate about the things you care about. Thank you for being a great Auntie always.
I love you!
