Our oldest two daughters, Kristin and Karen, both have birthdays at the end of September, 3 years and a day apart. With my c-sections, I was asked if we wanted Karen to be born on Kristin’s birthday. Hmmm. Birthdays were so special to me as a child, I don’t think I would have wanted to share one with one of my three siblings, so we opted for the next day instead. We did end up eating a lot of birthday cake at the end of September, but I think it was a good idea all around.
To celebrate the occasion, our youngest, Karla, whose birthday is in May, drew this picture for her sisters.
Karla's Version of Her Sisters' Birthdays
As much as Kristin and Karen enjoy each other’s company as adults, Karla also drew her rendition of Kristin’s reaction to getting a little sister as a birthday present: 🙂
Kristin Gets a Little Sister for her Birthday
If you have siblings, as much as we love them, you’ll appreciate the expression on Kristin’s face!
Happy birthday, ladies!

Thank you for putting up my drawings for your blog. I always thought of Karen being Kristin’s birthday present when Kristin was 3 years old.
