HELLO, My name is Sister Razzle Dazzle

The youth at church call my husband and I Brother and Sister Razzle-Dazzle.  I suppose I could be flattered by the Razzle-Dazzle part of this title, and while it always makes me smile, my favorite thing of all to hear is that "Sister" in front of it.  I love being a "Sister" to such an incredible group of young men and young women.   Now that's a flattering name.  It doesn't make me feel old.  There's not anything at all impersonal about it.  In fact, it's more personal than anything.  "Sister" reminds me of all that I have to live up to, of all the mighty women that have come before and that stand beside me now.  "Sister" helps me remember my true identity, that I am a daughter of God surrounded by an amazing army of brothers and sisters who are all in this together.  "Sister" is a name I cherish, a reminder I need, a title I love.
