1. The first time she opened her eyes when she was born.
2. Watching the Bulls together trounce the Jazz in the Finals. I bought her a little Bulls uniform that she would wear for every game.
3. The first time she recognized a color; it was a green light while driving down the road.
4. Getting stopped every 10 minutes everywhere we went by people telling us how beautiful she was. While in the top of the Sears Tower in Chicago in 2000, an Oriental tourist stopped us so she could get her picture taken with Justine.
5. Coaching her in T-ball
6. One of her first words was "Michael Jordan" and "Bulls"
7. Her baptism
8. Coming out of the Bishop's office last Sunday with her first Temple Recommend
We are so proud of Justine. She is very talented and a wonderful young lady. She makes good choices and is a good friend to others. She has a growing testimony of the restored gospel. She is good big sister to her siblings and sets a good example for them.
Justine broke her arm when she was 18 months old.
She fell down a window well at Grandma Edna's
Dad and Justine - 1998

look at all that hair! I am talking about on James' head of course!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Justine! You couldn't have picked a better day to be born!
Good to know she already has that recommend taken care of! If you're not doing birthday things as a family, we'd love to have Justine come to the temple for baptisms with the YW and dinner afterward!
ReplyDeleteSo sweet! I can't believe she's going to be 12. Hey that's totally old enough to babysit! Wait for my call :)
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Justine! Very sweet tribute to her by her Dad. Time goes so quickly! Mason will be passing the sacrament in 2 months & Justin can go to dances next month.
