Sisters

For those of you who don't know, I keep my sister Crystal's two little boys a couple of days each week. On Wednesday I was at her house to keep Waylon & Wyatt, before Crystal came home from work she called and said that she had to stop by the store and pick up a few things and then she would be on her way home. When she arrived home, she had this beautiful bouquet of Tulips for me. No it was not a special occasion (although I will be having a birthday on Sunday) she just thought of me when she saw them at the store and knew that I would absolutely love them. Which of course I did. You know little things mean a lot when it comes to sisters. It doesn't matter what either one of us is going through, the other one is always there ready with a listening ear. We have shared laughs, secrets and even tears with one another. Crystal has seen me at my worst and at my best and loves me anyway. I am so very thankful that she is my sister. I once read that "There's a special kind of freedom sisters enjoy. Freedom to share innermost thoughts, to ask a favor, to show their true feelings. The freedom to simply be themselves." How true this is of my sister and me.
