PARENTS' WISH OR ADVICE: You will be a strong, intelligent, beautiful woman, whose abilities will have no limitations because you will always have the love and support of your family.
SOMETHING SPECIAL: Both very proud sets of grandparents, your Auntie Carlie and Uncle Curt were there for your birth. Grandma and Grandpa Kleist surprised us by coming home early from their Manitoba vacation by driving almost 700 miles.
