Having siblings is having forever friends. Friends that you know will be there for you no matter what fight you're in or what time of the day it is. Siblings are pretty much required to like you, to be there for you.
I'm lucky enough to have two younger siblings, a brother and a sister who I can't imagine life without. Some days they come in rare form: irritating to the max, obnoxious to the extreme, utterly ridiculous. Other days they're they best people to have around, hilarious, comforting and the best secret keepers around.

I may have never asked for siblings (and for awhile never wanted any) but now that I have them I'm not sure what I'd do without them. Here are 10 amazing things about having siblings:
1. They were right by your side wearing those hideous matching outfits your Mom forced on you when you were younger. So at least you weren't alone.
2. They've seen you at your weirdest, your worst, your best and everything in between and guess what? They're still by your side.
3. You never have to explain your insane family to them-- they've lived it right along with you.
4. They'll always tell you the truth and be there for you no matter what.
5. They're always up for sitting on the couch, watching movies, playing video games and eating junk food.
6. They're your ride or dies, your best friends for life, your people.
7. They're like triple-locked vaults, the best secret keepers around. Just don't get them angry enough to use them against you.
8. It doesn't matter how old you all get, water balloon fights are a summer tradition and always will be.
10. Road trips will never be boring with them around. Between the ABC game or the flag game or just goofing around in the back seat those five hours or so will go by quicker than you think.
Having siblings is a blessing in disguise. They might be the most irritating, annoying people you know but they'll always be there for you and you'll do the same for them
