how does anyone live without a sister?
i love these girls.
im so blessed to have them and i know i can come to them with anything and everything.
without judgement we will love each other. understand each other. always.
not because we are family, but because we are friends.
what is family anyway. the people who are supposed to love you no matter what? whether you are family or not, love is always a choice.
i love learning about family dynamics. how daughters are effected if they grow up without a dad. does the middle child syndrome really exist? what is the best way to discipline? every family is different and so there are really no solid answers. no formula on how to have the perfect family. every family is a little dysfunctional. some more than others :)
what can you do?
well last night we played nertz, ordered vegetarian pizza, smoked cigars and laughed. talked about the awkwardness of my aunt's wedding, the long lost brother who showed up, seeing my mom's mom for the first time, the commune that my uncle is in, and the details of why my uncle was in a wheelchair.
everyone in my family is different, messy and real and well maybe a little crazy. but the one thing i can always count on when we get together is that it is never ever boring :)
The bond that links your true family is not one of blood, but of respect and joy in each other's life.
