My sister

When I was growing up I shared a room with my sister. It was pink! The walls were pink, the carpet was pink, and pink was all over the curtains and bed spread. It was very girlie. My sister and I could not have been more different back then. She was very easy going and I was more out going! She played softball and sports. I played with dolls and liked to dance. When we were 11 and 8( we are three years apart) are parents got divorced. Us six kids were back and forth between our parents. It was a rough time for all of us and I wish I would have paid more attention to my sister. I should have been a better example for her. I can not dwell on that now but I am so grateful that she is now one of my dearest friends. When I was in jail and prison she wrote to me and when I was in treatment she came to see me and made an effort to encourage me in my recovery. I am thankful. I will have 7 years clean this Saturday. We could not be closer than we are right now. We have boys very close in age and they are buddies. Tristan and Tanner. I just spent two nights with them and three days. We had so much fun taking the boys to the park and over to see my mom. It was awesome just being with my sis and her boy. These boys are wonderful gifts from GOD and my sister is an amazing mommy. Tristan is so sweet. He is walking now and trying to keep up with Tanner. At almost 16 months old he is a little cutie. And even though Tanner is 5 months older than him Tristan is still taller. I love my sister and nephew so much and thankful for them in our lives. I know God is in charge because there is no way I would have guessed that we would both be raising boys at the same time. TOO COOL! I so look forward to taking them to lego land in a few months when it opens. So many things for us to look forward to.
