Sister Moon...

I want to shout outloud to the whole world (or at least the Kandra-land world) and let them know that my sister "Shannon Marie Dorsey" a.k.a "Shay" is a phenomenually amazing woman and that she truly is the best sister and friend a person could ask for.....
It all started when I entered this world.. she instantly became my protector and guide. I have always admired her and looked up to her for guidance and she has been there for me 100 percent of the time throughout my entire life. She does it unconditionally and unselfishly and continues to show her love for me each and every day....
We have these audio tapes of us when we were younger being radio DJ's for our own talk show. She busted them out the other day... Shannon was "Downtown Julie Brown" and I was "Downtown Julie Brown JR". She has defiantely let me know over the years that she is the older and wiser one of the two of us:) (there is some definate truth to that) Shannon is someone who tells it how it is, there is no sugar coated Kandra-land version, she presents the reality of it whether you want to hear it or not. Shannon balances my personality out. I look to her for sound advice and she is my voice of reason at times. Even as kids we were close; at times she may say a little too close... for instance me sleeping with her everynight, wanting to hang out with her and her friends, and wanting to be around her ALL the time. I'm sure I was the annoying little sister at times, but I can honestly say I think deep down she liked it:).
Over the past 27 years of my life she has enriched my life in so many ways. We have been through the ups and downs together on this journey of life and I thank her for being my best friend, my protecter, my guidance counselor, my sound board, and most of all the bestest sister a gal could ask for. Thanks Shay! I love you to the moon and back:)
p.s. the photos are a glimpse of my sister from the time I moved to Cali to present. It starts out of her moving me to Cali and then of course she had to come back and get me:) Plus other random photos in between to present..
