Sisters

"Sister to sister we will always be, a couple of nuts off the family tree" -unknown

Today Hailey found some leftover Halloween stamps and put them to good use.  Makayla enjoyed it more than her face suggests. I love the way Hailey takes care of Makayla, and the way Makayla tries to copy everything Hailey does.  I think these two sisters are lucky to have each other.

I had a few sisters myself.

Doris, Judy, and Chris, about 1962

My sisters are some of my favorite people

and I feel blessed to have them in my life.

Maybe that's why I had so many daughters myself:
Amy and Shelly, Spring 1986

so that I could pass the blessings of sisters forward.

I hope my daughters enjoy having sisters

as much as I enjoy having sisters.

I laugh because there is nothing you can do about it!"-unknown

So, Hailey and Makayla, enjoy having a sister/friend to clean up after you,

hold the light while you read,

share silly talk with,

encourage you to "use two words", not just one, as you work to improve your language skills,

and always be your best friend.

Of course, brothers are wonderful too-

but that's a post for another day.
