beloved

Go and make me proud, my beautiful and caring sister. Actually, I'm already so proud of you. You're going to emerge from Emerson as one capable, mature, even more passionate speech therapist. I'm so excited for you, and for the both of us!

Edit: Yellow Vase in Redondo Beach is a darling little restaurant. It's tucked away between some stores and restaurants (across the street from Coffee Cartel). Their breakfast (specifically, their brioche french toast) blew me away, and they also sell baked goods (their macaroons looked tempting) and flowers as well. I HIGHLY recommend this place.
