she's the baby of our family. i remember dressing her up like she was my doll. i am 9 years older than her.
i remember the day she was born.
she is amazing.
i could say so many amazing things about her. but it can actually be said pretty simply.
she loves God. and loves others.
it's how Jesus tells us to love Him in the Bible. and she does it well.
when she gets back, she will sleep a bit and re-pack and head off on an adventure for 6 months (that she postponed a little for OUR trip)
she will be missed GREATLY...but it's because she does such a great job LOVING.
i love you, hannah!!!

What a testimony to both your parents, both of you living for Christ
love this post! love that girl! love YOU!
It must be awesome for Hannah to have an older sister she could look up to. Someone to help show her what it looks like to Love God...Love Others. I am thankful she had you. I am thankful I have you. ;-) LOVE
wow. that was touching to hear you say those things, Courtney. pretty much the best thing anyone can say to you...and especially coming from you! thanks for the encouragement. and i've definitely been touched over the years looking back on you choosing me to be your maid of honor, even though i didn't quite understand it's significance then:) love you!
Megan- you are so so right. i don't know how many times in my life, but especially in the last month or so having to explain over and over again my plans for the next couple of months, i have given thanks for courtney and who she is. as i explain why i'm going to rwanda and people keep asking questions to gather the whole picture and you can tell they're faces are starting to turn thinking my sister is CRAZY, all i can say is...'one, they're being obedient to God and couldn't be in any better place than in the middle of His will, and two, if anyone can do this...it's her and her family. she is an incredible person and mother...she's pretty much my hero!'
I've always attributed who i am to those 3 incredible people in my life- my mom, my dad, and courtney. and constantly give thanks for that! because i know not EVERYONE has that.
