today is stephanie's birthday. stephanie used to be a friend of mine in middle school. i bring this to attention because i have never forgotten that it is her birthday and i don't think i ever will. along with thinking of stephanie on this day i tend to think of her mother. sheila was an amazing person. she was a great mother to her daughters and even helped me out on occasions. i mostly remember her on the softball field since she was always there to help my dad keep the team straight. sheila died of cancer when i was in 7th grade. she died on january 10th, just 15 days before stephanie's birthday. i love to think about sheila because she was such a great person. i hope that she knows i'm thinking about her. and i hope stephanie knows that i'm thinking about her as well.
