Our Chelsea…Chelsy-belsy, Chels, Cha-Chi, Big C…turned 22!! It seems like yesterday our darling daughter, with a smile that lights up a room, was born. Last year was cool because she was 21 on the 21st of January. Today I am wishing her a Happy 22nd Birthday on the 22nd of January for her birthday that is January 21st. That totally makes sense, right? (Maybe in Wayne’s World!) Today she is “Legal plus a year.”
If I had to describe Chelsea in just one word, I would choose the word “passionate”… “compelled by, or ruled by intense emotion or strong feeling”…Yep, that is what I am talking about.
Chels is the most loyal friend, sister and daughter you could ask for and is very protective. When she see’s an injustice…she lets it be known. Chelsea is a force…an energy and you always know when Big C is in the house.
When Chels and Colinboy were little kids in the church nursery, Chels would take it upon herself to protect him. If some rowdy kid took a toy that Col was playing with…she would march on over, grab it right back….and gently hand it back to her brother. She stood over him in the nursery, like Genghis Khan defending his empire. No bully was ever gonna mess with her, her little brother, or her baby sister.
Chelsea has a knack for getting her brother, sister and most definitely her mom to do stuff for her. She is lovingly called “Big C” by her siblings and their friends. When Chels took a test in high school that matches your personality with a career, it suggested a profession as a military leader…go figure!
Chelsea is so easy to love and very loving in return. She feels strong emotion and acts with conviction. You always know where Chelsea stands….and if you are lucky to be part of her family or one of her friends, she’s always there ….standing right beside you…right beside her troops.
Happy Birthday, Chelsea….we love you
