Rachel


My little sister Rachel is 20. (WOW) Her emails brighten my day.

"what size shoes do you wear again? same as me? i have a pair of heels i don't wear. they're black (i don't know if black is ever necessary in samoa) and they are pointy toed (i don't know if you'd even consider wearing pointy toed shoes). but i don't wear them anymore because i only wear heels on sunday and it's a long stinkin walk to church and i can't hike it in heels. so i don't have much use for them. they're cute but i don't know if they'd be your style. and i have lots of shirts but not so much shorts.

i'm sure mom is shipping you christmas, tree and santa included so it shouldn't be any problem to stuff shirts and such between the boughs and in santa's pockets. mom can make anything happen. i'm going ot miss yall at christmas! and your pictures on your blog are so beautiful! i can't believe your amazing adventures. here i am cold and constipated and you're husking coconuts with a wonderful husband and cute kids.

don't worry, i bought myself a fake engagment ring today so i can feel like i'm almost in the same league as the rest of my family. the bad news is that the ring only fits on my middle finger because it's so cold out here my fingers shrink. I just say "my baby's got to get it sized" and people leave me alone about it. haha and did i tell you my glasses broke? one of fhe ear pieces broke off so they sit on one ear and they're lopsided. next year when mom gets more money for insurance i can get new ones but until then i'm cathy crooked glasses. it's the life i lead.

ew 'have a holly jolly christmas' just came on the radio sung by alan jackson. it's country. i want to puke. christmas music should never be country. they have their holiday. fourth of july. anyway i'll talk to you soon. i have one more final to study for. and i have a feeling it won't be whole hearted and i'm just going to do poorly. but then finals will be done so i'm thrilled. "

isn't she great?

Ok, she's hilarious! I can't believe all the little jokes she shoves in her emails to you. She's 20, eh? My younger brother is 23, returned missionary and single? J/K. Anyway, so glad you shared that! It's classic.

She's got those gorgeous eyes you have, Meli! And she's very cute in her letter. I'm sure she appreciates you sharing her email with us so we all can know her. It's good to have single sisters cause they still email you! All my sisters are too busy with work and kids to write to me!
