Birthday wishes going out to Erin today! Happy 28, you young thing, you!

Happy birthday to one of my little brothers, C.J. I can’t believe he’s 23 years old! WOW! That really makes me feel old seeing as how i helped changed some of his diapers at one time and had to keep him from pulling all of my sister’s gorgeous locks out…
