I’d like to take a second today to wish my Labor Day Cousin Jane a VERY HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!
Thankful Thursday
So… within the past couple of weeks I’ve sent out a couple of birthday wishes to some great people all related to me either by birth or Labor Day. Really I could go on and on about how special Chandler, Louis and Jane are to me but the fact is you know already how I feel about my Labor Day family and Louis is a guy… so I’m not sure I want to use “special” with his name. Still, I will remind you of this historic post where I told you that if I was the head of a crime family, I would make Louis my Underboss and if I was the President of the United States, I would make Louis my Attorney General. So, yeah, I think he's a great guy. Not much of a blogger or Facebooker... but still a great guy.
Anyway, my point is I’ve got some great cousins (all of them, really… not just these three) and for that I am VERY thankful.
