One of three....

I am one of three sisters, the oldest and by far the strangest in her profession.
My middle sister Suzanne , is a midwife, she started out as a coronary care
nurse, then worked in labor and delivery handling high risk pregnancies . She went back to school
and is now a midwife, that teaches nurses about high risk pregnancies. She is driven , bossy and
the type of professional that you always dream about, she can handle any medical emergency in her profession . She told us when she was three that she was going to be a nurse and has never varied from that course.
My little sister Kathleen , got her teaching degree, taught one year and decided that wasn't for her...she worked as an accountant and started her own accounting firm. My sister and I were not surprised, because growing up she was always tight with money...always frugal . She is also bossy , a family trait.
And myself...artists are not made , they are born that way, always drawing and doodling on anything and everything , even walls when I was little. I was very lucky to have a mother that came from a long line of creative people , always encouraging me to follow my dream .
Needlepoint was a surprise, but you can't plan everything...looking at this old photo, I can see how it all happened....it makes me laugh, because even at this age, we three were showing signs of where we would shine....
I was seven, Susie was four and Kathy was three....in 1957
What we use to laugh , the McGuire sisters, just like the old singing group ,that our parents had on old LP s. For some reason this would always make us laugh...sisters, very different but, the same sense of humor.
