Krystal's birthday is today! She is the big 30! She likes to do a "10 things I like about so-and-so" post when it is their birthday but I didn't think she would do one for herself, so I thought I'd do it for her!!
So here are 10 things I love about Krystal
1. She is so considerate and she has the talent/gift of loving others.
--Krystal is always thinking of others. The last time we went to visit them in Logan, she had a little separate guest gifts for me, Cody and Elise that were so thoughtful. She is always telling others that she loves them, something that I wish I could be braver and learn to do more often.
2. She is so good at hand stitching and making quiet books.
--Krystal's quiet books are amazing. To me they look professional and I'm amazed at how good she hand stitches.
3. She has great attention to detail.
--I marvel at the little details in Krystal's quiet books. She takes the time to do things--and to do them nicely--that I would either just leave out or would do a quick, lazy job of. Her attention to detail is also seen in her consideration of others, the decorating of her house, her parenting and her traditions.
4. She is really good at decorating.
--Krystal has decorated her house so cute. It was seeing how well her house was decorated and how it made her home feel complete that inspired me to put more thought in the decoration of my home. (Not that I've done much, yet...lol)
5. She is a good mom.
--I know Krystal doesn't always think she is being a good mom and that she gets impatient with Elaina but I admire the effort that Krystal puts into teaching Elaina and playing with her and the fun things that she does with her. I greatly admire that she is teaching her in the Montessori method.
6. She has traditions
--I love that Krystal has started her own family traditions and that she does them without fail every year. What fun memories she is starting for her family!
6. She is a good sister and friend. She listens to me complain. We are a lot a like
--These three go together but are worth mentioning separately. Not only is Krystal good at listening to me complain but when I do complain to her about things she almost always understands exactly how I feel because we are a lot a like and she usually feels the same way about the situation as I do. Even our own mothers and daughters are similar! And of course our husbands, because they are Wilkerson boys *insert eye roll here* Another benefit of us being a like is I'm not the only impatient Wilkerson girl!
*These two are a little selfish ;)*
7. She is fun to tease
--Which means when she is around I don't get teased! Haha Well, that's not true cause I'm a pretty easy target, but it does add to the fun :)
9. She laughs at my husband's jokes
--So I don't have to! ;) And she sincerely thinks he is funny! Which makes me think I should maybe appreciate my husband's sense of humor a little more....
10. She is who she is
--Krystal is who she is and isn't trying to be anyone else. She spends her effort working on bettering herself than trying to be someone different. And I love who she is!
Love you, sister! Hope you have a great 30th birthday!!!
