Sisters

Thank goodness for sisters.  I am finding such joy in my sisters.  One sister is getting married and we have been planning, partying, reading, and idea-generating.  The other sister is a new mom and we have been cooing, reassuring, playing and adoring.

My sisters and I are not genetically linked, but yet we are sisters to the core.  So much of us is similar, but yet we are so different.  It's fun, it's like having a best friend because at first glance a stranger may not assume we are related, but yet we are.  We may not look alike, but we act alike, understand each other, and love each other.  It's great.

Last night my sister cracked me up by sharing an embarrassing story of herself.  It made us laugh so hard.  It was nice that she felt comfortable enough to share it & laugh in retrospect about it with me.  It also made me feel like I'm not alone in the world & I'm not the only one who has mishaps.  Her story was something that I would feel is always and inevitably something I would do...it was nice to see I'm not alone in the world...and thanks to my wonderful sisters, we have someone to share in the laughter and keep the chaos of life and mistakes we make in perspective.
