This is my sister Jeanne and
her husband Shoji and their sons
Brian and Steven, of course
since this photo their family
has grown she now has two daughter's
Brain and his wife Jennifer had a son
of their own in April, so Jeanne is
NANA and Steven and his wife Motoko
are expecting their little one in the
new year.
In a previous blog I stated that Jeanne's
flower to me is a wildflower, not just
cause of their beauty but because
wildflowers have a free spirit and
my sis Jeanne has always been that
and has shared that spirit with
all that come to know and love her.
It is one of many qualities that
I admire about her.
Jeff and I became close to Jeanne's
family while we were stationed in
Los Angeles. She was there every step
of the way to guide me when I was
expecting Kiel.
She is Kaitlyn's GODMOTHER and
has included Kiel in that capacity
as well, She is known as "Auntie Nina"
to them and they adore her so.
Jeanne is very artistically talented,
another quality I admire, she enjoys making
jewelery and is great on computers, and
she is an AWESOME painter, I recall a certain
pair of Levi's that Jeanne painted on
(era of the hippies and my sis was a special
kind of "beatnik" ) those Levis were there own
kind of "sisterhood of the traveling pants"
I unfortunately never got to give those Levis
a try, always wondered what became of the ol blue
pair.
Another admiration is Jeanne's Passion
she has a passion for her Life, for her family
a passion for her beliefs, is strong in her
convictions.
I love when we talk, I enjoy when we visit
I Love seeing how much her eyes light up
when she talks about her sons and grandson
I respect what a great Mother she is to her
sons,they are the most caring men I have ever
had the pleasure to know and their sense of family
comes from their Mom.
I want to Thank my Jeanne and her family
for being such an inspiration to my children
" The Spirit produces- Love, Joy, Peace
Patience, Kindness, Goodness,Faithfulness
and Self control"
When I think just of that I think
of my sister Jeanne.
