Shortsasneuker is 20!

My dear beautiful talented little sister (Shortsasneuker) is 20 years old today! It seems only yesterday she was begging me to play house and barbies with her. But since sentimental comments such as that make Erika weep uncontrollably, I will refrain from making any others. My older sister, Melissa, had the genius idea of interviewing each other about Sister 3. She asked me questions and I asked her different questions. If you would like to read her questions and my answers, click here.

And without further ado, here's my interview with Melissa:

1. True or False, Erika likes oatmeal.     False

2. What’s Erika’s best physical feature?     She’s very symmetrical; matching freckles on her eyes. And she has the best nose in the family.

3. What’s one thing you hope never changes about Erika?     Her deep and genuine passion to love God, know Him, and make Him known to others.

4. What’s Erika’s favorite expression?     “What’s up?” “Oh my WORD!”

5. If you had to find an animal that best represented Erika to you, what animal would it be?      An army ant because she’s industrious, hardworking, not afraid to go into undaunted new territories, and her nickname is Shorty. Plus, it’s biblical.

6. If you had to put one thing in Erika’s hope chest, what would it be?     What’s a hope chest? (After explanation from interviewer) I’d knit her some lace doilies.

7. True or False, Erika likes the musical Newsies.     She should love Newsies since it’s the best musical ever, but I’m afraid the answer is false.

8. If you had to make Erika into a boyz band, what would you call it?     blak2blanko

9. Would you rather Erika marry Shawn or Gus?     Gus. Why?     Because he is so awesome! He would be the “blak” part of her boyz band.

10. What are some good things about her being the baby of the family?     I can clearly remember when she was born and all her growing up years. I liked when I was in boarding school getting coloring pages from her. She’s a good caboose to the Dorsch train.

11. Do you remember when I was born?     Yeah, but more vaguely. But this is not about you, Lindsay.

12. Does Erika like odd or even numbers?     Even? Do you know the answer to that? (Yep! Odd!)

I hope that gives you a little glimpse into the the character and personality of Shorty. She's wonderful and oh so stylish! I'm so proud of her and who she has become. I'm eager to see how God continues to shape and mold her. He has good and beautiful plans for her. 

Eureka, you are very truly special to me. Know that you are loved. I cherish the memories we've had growing up together and I'm so proud to call you my sister. Thanks for putting up with my over-emotional tendencies. 

Blogger points to anyone who can count all of the nicknames I've mentioned for Short-stop in this post!
