november 19th

and it is
someone's birthday.
a special somebody.
my cousin, A.

although many miles were between us,
we became close friends in childhood,
spending weeks together in the summer
and fun times on the holidays at Granny's.

while we remain miles apart,
we're still best of friends.
and even though our visits are seldom,
we manage to always pick up were we left off.

A, I hope you have a beautiful birthday.
now, you are older than me for a few months.
and at this age, i'm okay with that. ;)
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
