I always wanted a sister . . . alas, 'twas not to be!
But incredibly, Mama Earth has gifted me several!!
Me thinks I am the luckiest sister in the world!!!
Unfortunately, all my cousins lived far, far away.
The closest was my younger first cousin. I loved
it when she came to visit. We could play for hours;
I would actually cry when she had to leave with
my uncle. To this day, she is the sister I never had.
Sooooo love her!
I have a friend a few towns away. Once a month
she comes for a night of reds and treats by the fire.
We talk, laugh, cry, confide . . . my soul is rescued.
The next morning, we coffee, brunch and discuss . . .
. . . books and issues with another dear friend.
Bless mama for these two sisters!!
I have sisters far, far away . . . found in boarding
school, in my years in Mexico, at college and
teaching. I thought I was there for learning, for
garnering a career. Maybe, I was wrong; maybe,
I was in these different places to find my sisters?!
At the end of the day . . . I've loved my own kids,
enjoyed my students, adored my friends and
raised cain to hell and back again with my sisters.
Who could ask for more?!
so love my sisters
me thinks they belong to me
other moms daughters
