Sisters


I'm sitting here, waiting for laundry to finish, blog stalking, and I am hearing wonderful noises coming from the girls' room. I just had to make a note of it. I know, I should be upset that the girls are not asleep since it is a school night but I can't be upset. They are in their beds quietly talking and giggling with eachother. I almost want to sit close to their door and see what all the fun is about, but I don't want to ruin it. Although they don't know it yet, they won't have many more years to enjoy their time together. Oh how I miss my sister! Even though she hated it, I LOVED sharing a room with her. We fought. Boy, did we fight! But we loved eachother and we really had a lot of fun together. I miss staying up late, talking about boys or the latest fight we were in with a friend. I'm sorry to say this, but right now I'm very upset with Jeff for taking my sister away from me. Didn't he know how hard that would be for me? And why didn't I cherish every moment I had with her in Arizona before it was too late? What I wouldn't give to have a game of Canasta, a 44oz beverage and a candy bar with her right now. Those were the days...

I"d you're so lucky your a girl cuz i have different cherishable memories of sharing my room with my older bro, hmmm let's see:
Top bunk spit tests, aka how long can he make the spit fall then suck it back up before it breaks and lands on my face

Noogies

Flatulency and that accompanying locker room smell

Noogies

However, after our missions we shared a room again and being grown up we had some really good times talking about our dates, getting married, school, good times and noodle salad.

I just saw this post today. You make me want to cry! I LOVED sharing a room with you. I would have been so lonely without you. I'm too much of a talker. I seem to remember you falling asleep so many nights as I talked to you. I do that to Jeff too. I miss those days like crazy, even if you did borrow my clothes without asking. I know I was way harder to live with. I miss you more than you could ever, ever, ever know. I'm so glad we've gotten to be even closer over the last couple of decades. I know your girls will be the same. Miss you tons and tons. BY THE WAY...don't forget about the Sunchips while playing Canasta. Those were the days for sure!
