Sister: "I" is for Interesting

Continuing my tribute to my dear sister this week leading up to her birthday,

"I" is for Interesting.

Jeanette is one of the most interesting people I know and I thought I'd share some of the interesting facts about her:

• Jeanette has lived in three countries on three continents and has visited many more
• She has lived in five states (MD, NJ, AL, TN, TX, NY)
• Her left hand is dominant, but she is actually ambidextrous (or amphibian, as she thought the doctor said to my mom when he gave them that news)
• Jeanette played percussion in the high school band and marched with a snare drum
• She majored in Political Science in college because she "likes committee meetings"
• Jeanette went sky-diving in her twenties and we have the video to prove it (too bad it's not digitized to share)
• She can remember lyrics to songs and has been to numerous Billy Joel concerts
• Jeanette can do a great rendition of Sally from The Peanuts comic strip
• She likes "small" candies, like Nerds, Runts, Skittles
• Jeanette is a great cook and loves to create and adapt recipes using creativity and ingredients she has on hand
• She has a seminary degree in Preschool and Children's Ministry and has served as Preschool/Children's Minister and in other director roles in children's programs
• Jeanette sang in chorus and had some solos in concerts and drama productions

I really could go on and on about how interesting my sister is. I love that she shares her interests with others and brings unique gifts to any relationship.
