For: Elly
Occasion: her birthday
Elly is a truly wonderful cousin. When I thought about where she is in life and what wise, cousinly advice I could bestow on her, I started thinking about the most important lessons I learned in college. At one point in my college career, I lived in an apartment with no windows, taught in a room with no windows, and took all my classes in rooms with no windows. I hadn't realized how soul-crushing it was until the next year when I had some bright, sunny windows and natural light in my life. All this to say, I hope Elly has a fabulous year and let's the sun shine in!
