Happy birthday B!

This post is to wish the happiest of birthdays to my dear, dear sister Maria today! The philosopher and writer of the family is turning 16 today and I just can’t believe it. 

She has turned into the most wonderful of people as well as the best of sisters! We had all sorts of fun being antisocial introverts together over my Christmas visit to the US: as the non-or-less introverted family members ventured to various parties we usually stayed home and watched movies or did art. It was fabulous to spend quality time with her and get to know her almost-adult self even more. I learned all sorts of things from her too, like that when you take a selfie and it's kind of wonky, just put it into black and white and BOOM—great photo.

See?

Bia was able to have a lovely birthday party a couple of weeks ago since she and her busy, busy friends wouldn’t have coinciding free weekends for a long time after today. You can read about it here on her blog. Now I'm just wondering how long it'll take her to get that driver's license—on the same day like me or months later like Isa?

Darling sisterly I hope that not only this day is as wonderful as you are, but also that this year brings all sorts of happiness and joy to your life! I love you!!
