I don't have any "real" sisters, but let me tell you, I have sisters! Here are three out of four of them, right here. My fourth sister wasn't able to join us on Saturday as we celebrated my mom's 80th birthday. She lives way too far away. Too far away to come for a weekend. Too far away for us to be in her life and her in ours, in any day-to-day way, but not too far away to be out of mind. She was sorely missed.
And here are a couple of cute sisters, don't you think? My mom's on the left. Doesn't she make 80 look good?
I am blessed to have friends that are like sisters to me, too. Friends I can, and do, say anything to. Friends that are there through thick and thin. Friends that know the minutiae and the unmentionables.
Sisters and friends, friends and sisters. Same thing.
love.

I don't have sister's either. but I do.
Sisters of any kind are good--blood, marriage, or happenstance. Yep. All good.
And that the word "sisters" is such a prevalent one in your life.

I'm enthralled with my friends (as you know). Isn't it wonderful to have friends that feel like family?
