Beth, my sister from a different mister, and misses

I have a great relationship with my sister in law.  She is an amazing person.  We met when I started dating Dan and hit it off right away.  We could carry a conversation, just like we had been talking for years.

We have a lot of the same interests and agree on a variety of topics, even though we have opposite likes.  Reading is a favorite of both of ours.  Beth reads well written, intense stories, that have meaning and always end up making the best seller lists.  I read gooey romantics, where there is no thinking, just fluff.  She recommends or buys me these awesome books, which I am hesitant to read, then end up loving.  She knows my taste preference and only recommends books she knows I will like.

She is an amazing mother.  She takes care of her 4 kids everyday without complaint, while her husband works the night shift.  That means, she gets them up, feeds them breakfast, sends them to school, plays with the younger ones, while doing chores, makes dinner, gives baths, spends time with each child, then puts them to bed. She does this everyday and I don't know how she doesn't lose her head with all the chaos.

She is always there for me when I need her. I can talk to her about anything, at any time a day.  No matter what's she's doing, she takes time to help me sort out my problems and offers helpful advice.  She is always asking about me and my family, and doesn't talk about herself or her family.  She lets me brag about mine.  I am trying to be better at that and ask her how her family is doing.  She sends me amazing gifts and birthday cards and I have never sent anything to her or her kids,( which I feel terrible about and will now start doing).   She is the least selfish person I know.

I love you Beth and I am so glad I know you.  I couldn't have asked for a better sister in law!
