Have you ever:
- received a gift that matched your personality perfectly?
- sat at a fancy table that was dressed and decorated to the nines for a special holiday?
- nibbled on hor d' ouerves that had just the right seasoning?
- seen a dog obey its master then turn around and bite them in the toe? (okay, had to be there.) :) Good thing you weren't!
- became mesmerized by floral creations and beautiful Christmas trees?
- nibbled on cookies, bars, and cakes that teased your tastebuds like no other dessert? 7-layer bars, anyone?
- laughed with someone til you cried?
- cruised around Sanibel Island looking for, well, nothing in particular...and enjoyed it?
- beautified a church sanctuary with all the festivity-laden accouterments with patience?
- noticed how at least one family member ALWAYS has b'day cards delivered on time?
- seen someone spot a dolphin 10-million miles away...repeatedly?
- marveled at how someone organized a funeral service and dinner...and made it seem kinda fun....oops?
- seen Cleopatra's twin?
Well, I must admit that it is quite rare to find a talented individual who has the ability to do all of the above. But, I have!!! Yep, I'm talkin' every single thing that I mentioned above has been demonstrated by one person...even the Cleopatra part. It's true!
I have never met someone so domestically and creatively talented like my brown-eyed sister, Faith (aka Fahito)! She is and has done ALL OF THE ABOVE..and more! That's right! (I think she was either a dolphin (she can spot 'em like that) or Cleopatra (Halloween one year) in a previous life. No, I don't believe in all that stuff....just sayin'!
If you ever run low on creativity, just call on Fancy-Faith to help ya out! Now Faith will not only help ya out, but will tell you precisely how it should look, taste, and feel. You will be fully educated on how to make something outta nothing, or how to enhance the most beautiful "something" into a dazzling "piece de resistance". She is a doer! In fact, she'll own her own biz someday.
I'm very grateful for my sister Faith and have learned a lot from her high level of integrity, eternal optimism, and of course, her FAITHFULNESS! She is a stabilizer, promotes justice, demands fairness, sees it for what it REALLY is, and seems to always be content. If she doesn't agree with you on something, um, she prob never will. So, don't try to convince her...give it up. And, if you need a good laugh, she can unexpectedly wing a zinger at ya, like no other.
So, on this very special March day, I bless my fabulous sister, Faithy, with a joyful, prosperous, and healthy year ahead. You are loved and hugged today in a very special way!
Happy Birthday, Faith--my FAITHFUL sister and my talented friend!
BLESSING: "O love the Lord all ye His saints: for the Lord perserveth the FAITHFUL, and plentifully rewardeth the proud doer." Psalms 31:23

Ohhhh, how nice!! Thanks!!! Oh, and my toe will never be the same again!
She's the cupcake of all cupcakes!
Faith is the dependable one. If she says she will do it, it will get done. She is always fun to be with and you have an immediate friend if you're talking about Florida! She has a 6th sense about things so don't try to pull one over on her. She always has good things on her mind to feed you with and loves to bake those goodies we all love. Make sure Faith is invited to the party and you will always want to be there too!
I love the cupcakes – so Faithy like. I wish I had one now!
Yay Auntie Faith! Congrats on your special day. Hope it was a great one.
