Sisters

I have four older sisters. Yep. You read that correctly. My mom and dad had five girls in six years & three months time. Yep. You read that right too. So when I asked my girls how their life would look different after going to a Christian summer camp and they answered that they felt like they had grown closer as sisters, you can understand how that made my heart sing.

I love my sisters. I love that God gave me two girls who I could watch grow up together as sisters. And even though I tease my sisters that they are the reason I hung out with boys all through high school, (they set the bar way too high for other adolescent girls) I feel so blessed that they modeled to me how to be in relationship with other women.

So love up your sisters. And if you don't have one, you can borrow one of mine. :)

NOTHING better than sisters!!! I feel the same way about mine...both the ones I have myself, and the ones I gave birth to. Such cutie girls you have!

I always feel sad for my friends who don't have sisters! I'll offer up a few of mine too to any who need one. I love the new look on the blog. It sounds silly but you all look SO related!

I've always wanted a sister... and God has given me a few in the family of God. My girls used to say that sisters weren't as good as I thought they would be.... but I think I hear hints of how much they treasure each other now.....
