Sisters

No matter where life takes us, they will always be there.

Sisters

My sisters are my best friends. Yes, we do have other friends, we don't spend every waking moment together, our personalities are not identical, and we drive each other a little crazy at times, but I wouldn't change the relationship that I have with them for anything.

Growing up, I was closest to my younger sister, since we were only two years apart. Our older sister if four years older than me and six years older than my younger sister, so we didn't become as close as we are until more recently. When we were little, I always wanted to be just like my older sister. In my eyes, she was the most fashionable, the coolest, and the prettiest person I knew. And I would have given anything for the opportunity to hang out with her. My younger sister and I always played together, we always wore matching clothing, we shared a bedroom, and I'd admit, I bossed her around a lot.

Both of my sisters are very dear to my heart, and I love each of them for their many beautiful and unique qualities. Somewhere in between borrowing their clothes and having a confidant, having sisters, and the privilege of sharing life with both of them has brought me far more blessings than I deserve. My sisters are a blessing from God, and I couldn't be more proud and thankful for their lives and the impact that they both have had on me. They both teach me to be a better version of myself, and they do so through their example. They encourage me in my endeavors and seek my encouragement. They bring joy and laughter into my life. They put up with me even when they find me annoying. They inspire me to grow in my relationship with God. They live life and share their lives with me. And they love me.

Now, my older sister is married, I'm in college, and my youngest sister is more than half way done with her high school career. It crazy how we went from being little girls dressing up as if we were characters from Little House on the Prarie, to young adults making plans for our futures and going on adventures.

My sister will forever be my go-to people, and I know that My sisters are my best friends. Yes, we do have other friends, we don't spend every waking moment together, our personalities are not identical, and we drive each other a little crazy at times, but I wouldn't change the relationship that I have with them for anything.

Kendra and Anna, thank you for all that you do, thank you for being godly women, and thank you for experience and memories to last me a lifetime.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
