Happy Spring Girls!

Hi Penelope and Mikaela!


You both look so adorable in your dresses. Are you ready to celebrate spring?

I am too! Or at least I would be, if spring would ever arrive here in Edmonton! We still have a little snow.

I think that you guys have warmer weather in Toronto, so have fun!

And as you go out and celebrate spring together, always remember that if one of you gets more attention than the other, it doesn't mean that one of you is better than the other.

It may mean that someone wants to compliment you on the turquoise dress you have on, Penelope.

Or that someone wants to complement you on the dark blue dress you have on, Mikaela.

The important thing is that you are sisters, you are together, and you will always look out for each other. As you grow older, you will each discover things about yourselves. These things help to make up something called your personality, which makes each of you the special person that you are.

And the neat thing is that your special personality will be different than your sister's personality.

And that is totally fine, because you are sisters and you are together.

And there is a lot about both of you that is the same.

Your mom and dad love you the same.

Auntie Shawna and I love you the same.

Grandpa Paul and Grandpa Jim love you the same.

Everyone else in your big family loves you the same.

And as you grow up and move through life, that is really what matters.

Your mom and I had to figure that out when we were growing up.

Sometimes I was jealous of her because she could use her legs and I couldn't.

Sometimes she was jealous of me because of the help and attention I got because I couldn't use my legs.

But as we grew up, we learned to appreciate the good things about each other.

And now we love each other just as much as you guys do.

But that's enough talking from me for now.

Go out and enjoy spring!

I love you Penelope!

I love you Mikaela!

Uncle Mike
