My sister is my best friend. It’s true. She’s the first one I want to share exciting news with, complain to, and spend my free time with. She always knows what to say to me in almost every situation ...even those times when I really don’t want to hear what she is about to say...
I view her as one of my biggest role models and I feel so blessed that she is the sister God chose for me.
She is the proud parent of three amazing children. And while she’s made it look pretty easy at times, I know it hasn’t been. Now, her oldest kid is in college, the middle in the pre-teen stages, and the youngest just a year younger than Megan. I have seen that parenting has been hard for her at times. The burdens of being a wife and a mother and the responsibilities that go along with them are hard, and there are days when I know she feels discouraged.
On those days, I want to tell her how thankful I am that she has gone first. She’s always done things ahead of me and I know it hasn’t been easy. I want to tell her to keep going because I still need her to be the woman I look up to, who I admire – just as I always have. I continue to love that she knows how to do things that I don’t, or that I haven’t yet. I’m looking for her to guide the way because she is my sister. She is still my role model.
Love my sister so much!
