being there



Sisters annoy, interfere, criticize.
Indulge in monumental sulks,
in huffs, in snide remarks.
Borrow.
Break.
Monopolize the bathroom.
Are always underfoot.
But if catastrophe should strike,
sisters are there.
Defending you against all comers.
~Pam Brown

I always wanted a sister. Someone to play with, hang out, talk to, go shopping. I am glad my girls each have a sister. Growing up, they did (and do) all those things listed above. I am proud of them for looking out for and taking care of each other.
