My Sister Irene



Irene's Disney Princess of choice is Ariel. When I think Ariel, the song Part of Your World comes into my mind. A song about exploring, being free, dreaming, and growing into an independent women. Totally an Irene theme song.




Irene's heart is HUGE. Irene is all heart. She has a ton of love to give. Love for dogs, love for orphans, love of the dixie chicks, love of good grades, love of family, love of friends, love of experiences, really just a love for life.

The poor kid loves dogs. They never work out though...but they are loved...by Irene.
Irene loves orphans, wants to save them, wants to adopt them, wants to know them. Years ago, I remember her packing up a shoebox of toys to send to a Romanian orphange. A gift for those who don't have.
Irene loves country. She is country. She has a cowgirl strut in the city. She is a hillbilly. Take her to a Dixie Chicks concert and she asks for fiddle lessons.
Irene, valendictorian and scholarship winner, loves good grades. Needs good grades.
Loves family. Her best friends are her sisters. She loves the big family scene.
Tons of girlfriends. Not sure why...I really don't get the concept, but it floats her boat.


On this her 19th b-day, God only knows who she is with or what she is doing. She is spending the summer at Yosemite. Happy Birthday Irene!!
