Happy Birthday Ashlee!


Today is Ashlee's 25th birthday! I'm glad that my friends are catching up in age finally! I have known Ash since she was born...even though it took another 12ish years for us to become friends. Ashlee is one of the most loyal friends you will ever have and can always bring a smile to my face.
My earliest memory of Ashlee is from when we were primary age. I remember multiple fast Sundays when Ashlee, as a little girl, would get up and bear her testimony. I always admired her for her courage to get up there in the first place since I was pretty shy as a child. Everytime I think about it, it makes me laugh because ten words into each time she bore her testimony she would burst out in tears. Now maybe this was the spirit touching her little heart, but to me, the shy little girl, it was fear...fear that I would do the same thing! And I hate crying in front of people...even then I hated it! So, way to have courage, Ash, and happy 25th birthday!
