A few years ago, I learned that I do have a sister (1/2, from my biological mom), and wish I'd known her earlier. This is awesome Lisa - that you see the glimpses and I bet they are really close as adults. Also it always freaks me out when people say that girls will better care for us when we're old because 1.

Still, the older two took care of us younger two. And I did clash with the one I was closest to age-wise growing up, but since we moved out of the house, we're very close.

It was hardest with the sister right above me. She was super duper outgoing and I was super duper shy. I truly lived in her shadow my entire childhood.

As you were a little sad not to have a son, I was a little sad for Gwen because she will not have a sister. But a good friend reminded me that a brother and sister can be close as well (she and her brother were), and I hope that my kids continue to be close as they get older.Danahttp://kissmylist.com/noreply@blogger.com
