A Sister Is...

" A sister is a gift to the heart, a friend to the spirit, a golden thread to the meaning of life." ~Isadora James

As I think about starting my own family, how many children to have and so on, my thoughts drift to my sister. I felt her love so deep during our Thanksgiving visit, that I could not imagine life without her in my corner. We have not had much time to visit one another this year as she was working double over-time on getting her candidate for Mayor of Buffalo elected. Perhaps absence does make the heart grow fonder because I feel more connected to her than ever. She had this beautiful Christmas cactus in her kitchen next to this old photo of us.

I love your journaling. I never had a sister, but I have 3 brothers. I love them, but it's just not the same.....
