Celebrating their mother's 75th birthday
Las Vegas 2011
Sister
"A sister is a little bit of childhood that can never be lost."
My mom is the oldest of the three. They were all raised with strong family values. Holidays are spent together - english & ukrainian. I don't remember a holiday, celebration or special day that didn't involve my immediate family. They all love to travel. Each and every one of them spent some time with Jason and I overseas. They have also travelled together - Vegas a few times. This past June we met in Las Vegas to celebrate my cousin Raelene's 21st birthday. My mom was in her glory. What mattered to her the most is that we were all together. Christmas was hard this year for my mom - I'm sure it was for them all. With the passing of my Baba last April, this was the first christmas without her physically present. On christmas morning in my home in Prince George we exchanged and opened presents. But there was a gift that she opened that moved her to tears. I later learned it was a picture of herself with Sandy & Joan taken on the last trip to Vegas. The picture frame read "Sisters".
