When my kids were little they loved each other so much. They laughed together and played together...that was then. I can't say they don't like each other now but they are both teenagers and they have those moments when they are going back and forth and you as their parent stand in the middle of them wishing that Calgon would just take you away. Of course there are those moments when we are all just sitting there and all is as it should be and I enjoy those moments the best.
I know that one day, or at least I hope, that the two of them will grow as close as I have with my siblings. When we were younger it seemed there was never a dull moment and we all drove each other crazy. I am sure my Mom thought she was going to have to jump off a cliff to avoid us being such jerks most of the time...and then there's now.
We grew up and evolved and something wonderful happened, we became friends and discovered that we not only like each other but that we actually love each other too. Now don't get me wrong , we have our differences at times but we always come back to the place where we should be. We know that through thick and thin or whatever the case may be that we have each other's back.
On my crazy journey that I am on right now I have found that even still my siblings stand right behind me to encourage, support and love. I have never experienced a moving situation that happened within an two hours but my Sister and Brother rallied up the troops and we got it done to get their little sis into her own little slice of heaven AKA my apartment.
Whenever I need advice, whenever I need help, they are always there, no matter what and I love them all so much. Brothers and Sisters are like forced friends that you eventually grow to love and I am thankful for all three of mine.
My Sister helped me out with something today that she knew would give me peace of mind and bring me happiness, and I am so grateful for her. My Sissy is like a mom to me and she is one of my best friends. She never judges me, she loves me and she is always here for me and I am eternally grateful that God puts people in our lives who he knows we will need and love along life's journey.
