 D elicately paving roads for me to travel then
 A ll the things like dating being awkward way back when
 Y ou gave me my first taste of wine you loaned me treasured things.

B ig sisters are a gift from God and so this message brings
 I n all truth and sincerity each dream that you hold dear
 G race for all your trials and prosperity each year.

S pecial blessings, lots of love, new joys for every tear
 I n years ahead and every night I thank God most of all…For
 S ending me a sister now, and then when I was small.

HAPPY SECRETARY'S DAY

H ow true it is when it is said “We often fail to show”
Appreciation to the one who should be first to know.
Putting off the praises, those kind words we never say
Paying more attention to the problems of the day.
Your never failing efforts seem to always be in vain.

Somehow each day you find the strength to come to work again.
Every time I think about the things I put you through
Coping with the problems ( Everyday it's something new! )
Realizing you're the glue that holds us all together
Expecting to be counted on no matter what the weather.
Those time I never had to guess if you'd be there for me,
Altering your lifestyle just to keep us all happy.
Remembering seems truly right if only once a year . . .
You'll never really know how glad we are to have you here.
Saying “Thanks” is not enough but somehow you must feel . . .

Deep appreciation in our hearts for you is real!
And so if we forgot to say the words you long to hear . . .
You're dear to us Not just today but all throughout the year.
