Can I just say…..

I am blessed with the most wonderful sister in the world?

You all can be jealous just this one time, and you may pay homage. I am now part of the official club of owning something that says “Coach” on it.


Yep my sister bought me this darling little coach purse. BUT before you ooooo and Ahhhhhh to much. That is not the best part, OH NO!

But INSIDE my little darling coach purse was a silver bracelet and it was engraved “My Sister & Prayer Warrior” on one side and then James 5:16 on the other side.

Therefore, confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another so that you may be healed. The effective prayer of a righteous man can accomplish much.

Ok NOW you can be jealous. Why did I waste so many years fighting with my best friend?

See you in about a week (I could have written you a sweet thank you note, but I figured I would brag on you on the world wide web instead =))

How lucky are you?? The purse is so cute and I would love to have a Coach purse. Of course I’d love to have a sister like yours even more than the purse. What a blessing!! She sounds like a wonderful person and a very special friend. Congratulations…you are truly blessed:D

That is absolutely wonderful. What a lovely sweet sister you have.

That is wonderful! I love Coach-last christmas my husband bought me a Dooney-it was not on my list so I was extra thrilled.

I ended up not going to the doctor-I couldn’t get in. I feel better though just behind on everything this week.

And again-I am happy you have your sister-just bummed she is not mine!!

That totally rock-eth! Your sister sounds almost as cool as mine. ;-)

Oh I am jealous..not so much over the purse… a little bit over the beautiful bracelet…but ALOT jealous over the relationship you have with your sister….you are blessed.

The purse was probably a nice surprise but the bracelet must have brought you to tears. You have a very very nice sister.

So glad that your get a thrill over a purse and a sweet bracelet, but I have to admit that I’m more envious of the sibling relationship. THAT, my friend, is priceless.

That is so sweet! What a great sister!

10 Susanne 11.08.06 at 8:32 pm

Wasn’t that sweet of her?! And the bracelet tucked inside? What a treasure!

11 Fiddledeedee 11.08.06 at 9:03 pm

How sweet is that!!! My 2 girls either love each other to pieces, or they are bickering enough to drive me insane. I pray that they grow up to be best friends. You are blessed indeed!

Okay - so the purse is cool - but the bracelet is just awesome :)…I think I need to find one like that for my sister and sent to her. :) - You have a cool sister!

Sisters are the best, aren’t they? I see my girls fighting and I tell them “You are best friends - now start treating each other like it!” A praying sister is just that much more of a treasure - purse or not!

Oh how I can relate to this sentence here: “Why did I waste so many years fighting with my best friend?” You are very blessed to have her!

We used to tell our kids, when they were fighting, that someday they’d spend their hard earned money and their time off work to go on vacation together. Hard to believe back then, and they do just that now. Sounds like you have that kind of sister, the kind you spend time and money on.

What great gifts from your sister–style AND substance!

What a blessing to share your faith, encouragement from one who knows you like few do (my own sister “sees” me in a way not even my husband does, that “sister” thing, I guess…she knew me “when”).

17 Jennifer 11.13.06 at 5:35 pm

What a great gift and a sweet sister!
