Technically, I have 1 whole sister, 2 halves, and 2 steps. Although the whole and the halves are my wholes as far as I'm concerned. And I happen to be the oldest of the bunch.
So, you've met my beautiful baby sister, and you've met my amazing, giving birth on the side of the road sister.... (yes, this actually happened- watch the news video)....
...now meet my only truly full sister- only 14 months apart, we've known each other our entire lives.
She is such a goof. She always has been. She makes me laugh so hard whenever I see her, and we email each other while she's at work on days I am home, and she loves to remind me of all the stupid things I did as a kid (that I try to forget!!) and make me laugh my coffee out my nose.
Like... the time I thought I was shrinking in the bathtub. yeah. don't ask.
She is also the mother of two beautiful girls, my nieces, a divorced mom doing it all on her own, and doing a great job that is really, really hard. And she can still laugh like THAT.
I am extremely proud of her.
She is beautiful. She is funny. She is smart.
She is my sister.
And I am so glad.

Sisters are the best. I was so excited when I got pregnant with my second girl because I SO wanted Maile to have a sister. Now I get to re live my childhood through them, which is fun...but sometimes painful!
I have one sister. And I'll keep her. :)
Thanks for sharing your family with us.
I like the new look of your blog. Especially the fish.
That was quite a change in your basement. I think it looks very nice.
