To us...it was strong, independent, decisive--and she would be the same.
She couldn't wait for the doctor, to make her earthly debut, When it was her time to arrive, she and only she knew.
She loved her kind, big brother -- he adored her as well,
She was a loving, caring sister to little Liz Giselle.
She grew and matured and no one could quite keep up,
Soccer, volleyball and basketball -- her athletic ability she could strut!
She graduated with honors and away to college she went,
Being rather competetive, on her goal of success she was bent.
A beauty indeed, with such spunk and so much fun,
To Hawaii, on cruises and to Mexico she traveled in the sun.
She was pretty pickie when it came to finding the perfect mate,
Way to go Chels! The Johnson Family is first-rate!
Happy 25th birthday, dear Chelsea, Dad and my love for you is endless!

Happy Birthday Chelsea! Neat post Aunt Billie Sue, such a special way to honor Chelsea on her birhtday!
Thank you so much Mom! I am obviously a little emotional, but it clearly made me cry. Thanks again for being here this weekend. We miss you already and want you back!
What a great tribute to such a fine sister and daughter. I am so excited that it is October and we have all these birthday's (October is the biggest birthday month for the McNeil clan) The score is 2 daughter's 1 daughter in-law and now 3 grandkids! No other month can beat that!!!Pretty soon we will have the holidays here and we will all be together AGAIN! Keep up the good work mom, you've got a busy month!

I love how you call her little chelsea. I know that I am not a lot older than chelsea but I always thought that me being the OLDER cousin I should look after her (Just like I thought Allen looked after me) Now Little Chelsea has had a baby of her own and I just can not belive it!!! I love the poem, what a great birthday gift to her!
Very nice poem mom. That little Chelsea has been a pretty fun girl to have around hasn't she.
Mom, maybe I'm just emotional today, but you have me in tears. Chelsea is such a fun sister I love to be with her. Happy birthday, Chels. (Can't wait until my birthday to see my wonderful tribute. Wait, I can wait until my birthday...I hate being old!)
Somebody is slacking! I'm ready for an update!
