Sisters

This is a sentimental post about sisters. I've been thinking a lot about sisters lately; mine, the ones I hope Claire has, sister-in-laws. Just sisters in general. And I've come to the conclusion that I would like Claire to have a sister. Because looking back at my childhood, I don't really remember all the stuff I did with my friends (who I don't even talk to anymore). I remember what I did with my sisters, plays on the deck, sliding down the slide in the rain, you know all that stuff. I guess sisters are like best friends who you are stuck with for life. With a 'normal' friend you can say something wrong or mean in the moment and then you aren't friends anymore. Sisters are free to tell you whatever you need to hear even when you don't wanna hear it like; that your hair looks stupid or mom won't let you out of the house like that, or he's no good for you. and even if you get mad and want to ditch them, everyone else in the family (namely mom and dad) will keep them around, so you might as well forgive them and move forward. I'm really thankful for my sisters... really, really thankful. Thanks Mom and Dad for giving me the best friends a girl could ask for.

:) This is very true. I've never thought about sisters like that. Guess I'm not sure what I would do without Katie!
