The Spafford Fam: Jerika's Birthday

Jerika loves to strike a pose!! Its a rare occasion if you get a serious one!

On Aug. 8th my little sister turned 12 years old. I really cant believe she is that old. I still can remember when she was born. I was 15 and so excited for a little sister. Despite all that she had to over come, we all loved her so much. We were all so protective of her especially my mom. I still can remember when she was not quite a year old I would tell my mom that I was going to take her on a walk. I would take her over to the school playground and take off her shoes and we would play in the sand. We would sit there for ever and she would just run her toes threw the sand. If my mom had known she would of gotten so mad because she was so afraid of her getting sick. To this day Jerika loves the park. I like to think it was because I taught her early on to love it. For her birthday she wanted to go to the splash park. The whole family was there. It was really nice to see all my siblings and my nephews. Jerika got lots of fun presents and we ate pizza until we were stuffed!! Jerika got a new swimming suit for her party and she thought it was the coolest thing ever. I love her so much!! Happy Birthday Sis!!!

My brothers Jordan and Jeremy! Jeremy looks all bugged eyed because this was the 3rd pic I had to take because he always closes his eyes! So he was making sure he wouldn't close them!
