Dear Lauren, for your birthday I got you Monje, Nzingo, and some spaghetti!


So, this is my sister, Lauren.


Today is 10-10-10...


and she is turning 22.


Normally, if I were home, I’d find old embarrassing pictures from her childhood. And there are many.


So it’s probably a good thing I’m in Africa. I can only pull from the photos I already have saved on my computer.


As you can see, Lauren and I have a lot in common.


I’m really sad that I can’t be with her on her birthday. I’m sure we’d do something exciting together.


Like...go out for ice cream?


Anyway, Lauren is such a good sister. She came to visit me in Nashville and New York and we made some of my favorite memories.


Lauren, I miss you so much!


And I hope you and your alter ego, Loquacious, had an awesome time at your party last night.


I can’t wait to see you when I get back.

Happy birthday to my beautiful, kind, hilarious, weird, dumb, crazy, wild, smart, lovey sister. I love you!!
