i met jessica before andy did. she was sitting next to me in church and after the service, we started talking and i said "i'm andy's sister." i assumed everyone knew andy (because everyone knows andy), but she didn't know who he was. so i said, "he's the good looking guy playing the drums in the worship team." just kidding, i didn't say that.
andy and jess eventually met, fell in love and got married. that's how i got the best sis-in-law ever.
she immediately fit into our family like she'd been there all along.
she's always interested in what's going on in my life and we have lots of good conversations.
she is the sweetest, most caring person i know.

Great photos! Happy Birthday to your SIL! :)
I am also incredibly blessed with awesome SILs. Don't know what i would do without them. When i shop for their birthday cards, i always feel like i should just give them the ones in the Sister section v. the Sister-in-Law section because there is really no difference in my relationship with them v. my blood sisters! Which is so amazing!
Wow, Aimee, thank you! I hardly know what to say - you have such a way with words....I am really humbled to read your sweet comments and know that you feel that way about me. Marrying Andy, I gained you. Thanks for sharing in life and being family with me, and everything that goes along with that. Andy and I have this little saying habit - and I'll use it on you now too - and say ditto. I love you lots too!!!!
You know, you forgot to mention one other thing we share - how cute we are together all the time! :) Sending you a biiiiiiiiiig hug right now.
Things happen for a reason and because of your question about whether or not she knew Andy...Jessica is now my cousin!!!!
