Happy Birthday, Nancy

Dear Hearts,

Nancy, center, and a few of her true admirers.

April 3rd is the birthday of Nancy Carol Sands Sullivan: daughter of Donald and Florence, sister of Sandy, wife of John; mother of Mike, Maggie and Matt; grandmother of Evangeline, Violet and Brandon; in-law, cousin, aunt and friend to many more.

Nancy continues to live her life with constant strength and goodness. Since I met her way back when, she has been consistently kind, smart and funny as heck. Her humility is incredible as this woman is so gifted in so many aspects of her life! Nancy is an award-winning photographer and terrific musician, and she can design and produce a bountiful garden as well as a delicious meal.

She is a true champion of children, giving them time, patience and whatever tools/toys they need to be successful or just have a blast at playtime. Nancy has been my go-to comrade in all things chocolate and Nutella cookies/balls will remain in my top three favorite desserts.

Happy Birthday, Nancy, and may you have 51 more healthy ones, by the Aunt Joannie Sullivan Law of Longevity Aspiration of 2008.

God bless us and save us and keep us from harm.

Love, Patty
