Happy Birthday to my eldest sister, Dita. Her given name is Arlene, but I've only ever known her as Dita. Which name do I use for her acrostic? Since I call her and know her by Dita, I think I'll use that one.
D- DETERMINED Anyone who has ever met my sister knows that this words describes her perfectly. She knows what needs done and she finds a way to do it. Persevering would be a better word, but there's no P in her name.
I- INSULIN Dita has Diabetes. She's had it since she was 10 I think. As far back as I can remember, she never let it get her down. That's IMPRESSIVE.
T- TOUGH My sister has put up with some crap. Crap doesn't fit that sentence too well, but this is a G-Rated blog. She gets through it no matter what it is. She smiles when she doesn't want to. She laughs when she wants to cry. She does it for her children.
A- ADORING This is where her children shine. You can tell her love for them just by watching them. They are what keep her going through all the words above. They are her driving force. I don't think she'd have it any other way.
Happy Birthday, Dita! We love you!
