I've been thinking alot lately about how important my sister actually is to me. It's amazing the difference a few years and some time apart has done for us. We've always been pretty close, but lately she has truly become my best friend. So, here's a list of reason's why you can't help but love her. And I hope you all get to meet her someday.
1. She is obsessed with all things chocolate!!! I've never seen anyone be as ready for dessert as she is. She is up serving it before anyone else can even put their fork down from the meal.
"A sister is both your mirror -- and your opposite."
2. As a child, she created her own language--and she continues to use it with those of us who have known her long enough to know what she is saying!
3. If at any time-day or night- you wonder where she is or what she is doing, there is a 99% chance she is somewhere studying. She has her mind set on what she wants to do with her future so she will not take ANY chances!
4. She is faithful to her friends. The friends she had in 3rd grade remain her good friends to this day--no matter how their life, or her life, has changed, she is someone you would always want to consider your friend.
"A sister is a little bit of childhood that can never be lost."
5. She is obsessed with all things pink. She wears pink at some point in some way every single day of her life. It's her signature color--and it's perfect for her.
6. Last, but most importantly, she loves the Lord and is willing to follow Him wherever He leads. She went on her first mission trip this past summer, to share Christ with Muslim refugees in Paris, and she can't wait to know where the Lord will allow her to go next. She has set Him before her as her goal--to know Him, to love Him, and to serve Him with all her heart, soul, mind and strength.
"She is your mirror, shining back at you with a world of possibilities. She is your witness, who sees you at your worst and best, and loves you anyway. She is your partner in crime, your midnight companion, someone who knows when you are smiling, even in the dark. She is your teacher, your defense attorney, your personal press agent, even your shrink. Some days, she's the reason you wish you were an only child."
