Birthday party!
I may be completely off the mark here... I went through the archives because I started having nagging doubts regarding the actual date of this birthday celebration. It had always been on the 24th, but for some reason I changed it to the 25th last year and nobody called me out on it. Which is which?
We'll have a party anyway! Happy birthday, Sleuth and QoS!

My sister Angela
I've been missing in these past few days because our family suffered a great loss on Saturday. My younger sister Angela fell asleep peacefully and didn't wake up. I feel like a part of me has fallen off... I wasn't sure I should write a post about it, but decided to share my pain and also the love I carry in my heart for my beautiful little sister. She had some health issues, but we weren't expecting her heart to simply stop. Angela suffered from depression and carried a heavy burden of unhappiness. Here are some photos of how I want to remember her, from happier times:
