September 10, 1970 my sister Kristin Joy Sumpter was born. I didn't know her until four years later when I was born, but I can not imagine my life without her. When we were growing up I did not know what a blessing and a treasure my sister was, but as I have gotten older and wiser I give God thanks daily for the gift of my sister. When she left for college it was the first time in my life that I realized that her presence could not be taken for granted. I missed her! So, I am blessed that we live 1 1/2 miles away from each other and our kids are best buddies. Kristin Joy Sumpter Rutherford, I am so glad that you are my sister and I can not imagine my life without you in it. Happy Birthday!!!
This space once chronicled life with children and our Dallas adventures. Now the kids are grown, and I’m still adventuring — traveling, thinking, and writing — as I learn to trade social media scrolling for slower reflections.
