Sisters. . .

This morning I was thinking about my friend Trish Gaddess - and how we haven't been in touch in a long time. She and I went to Kindergarten together - which was 30 years ago. I love stories I hear about people that have had certain friends for years and years. Longevity of friendships - and marriages - seems to be a rarity these days.

Then I realized that I have a friend who's been my friend since I was 2 years old - my sister Julie. We are 21 months apart in age. She and I have shared everything - from the backyard swingset, to our matching clothes our mom made, from "dad-cut" bangs, to the errant hairstyles of the 80's (mine were definitely more errant).

We now share the experience of being a wife and mother of 2. That's the best - to look back at all we've lived through and where we are now. Thank God we still have each other. I'd be lost without her. We share a love for life, music, parenting, baking, certain reality TV shows that shall remain nameless - and most of all each other. If you see my sis, please tell her to move to Colorado - we've got living to do!!!
