something to say...finally
this is a thank you note. a thank you note to my mother for giving me my sister.

before I had my own children no person had ever given me such joy. i was eight years old when she came into my world. she was the coolest. i learned how to be a mommy. changing diapers, feeding a little person and being smiled at for no earthly reason. I was hooked. after that, everything else out there paled in comparison to having this awesome responibility...i knew it then...i learned at eight years old what i wanted to be when i grew up. a mommy. because my baby sister made it look like so much fun.

my baby sister is now a twentysomething. over the years our relationship has grown. when we lived together we had that love hate relationship that only siblings share. when i moved out...we lost that...sometimes i wish i could grab that time back...i would have been more present in her life...but i was busy making mine and never stopped to ask her about hers...

i have been settled in my life for some time now...i have two little girls of my own and for the last 10 years kate and I have gotten back what was lost. i am not raising her anymore. she is grown and wonderful. we hardly fight. we like each other as people...and I think that even if we weren't sisters, we'd be friends...
