I am super blessed to have the family that i do. not everyone is lucky enough to have sibling that love them and have a strong relationship with. i get that its rare, and i am grateful for the ones i have. i said i always wanted a brother- but i wouldn't trade any of my sisters for the world. they are all SO different yet we tie together so well. without one of us- the family just isn't complete.

first there is nicole.
i adore nicole because she is one of the most adventurous people i know. she takes on a challenge and she goes for it. she has accomplished so much in her life and lived so many different places that have made her into a stronger and well-rounded person. we are so much alike in the stuff we listen to, the ideas about our future homes, we like the same movies, etc etc. i love it most when she gets really excited about something and she just lights up like a little kid and giggles. we can talk and cry to each other about anything- theres always a little spot in my heart for her and i always know we will have each others backs.

thrid is ashley. since day one ash has took me under her wing and we've been little buddies. she was always there to save me in timeout and would let me sleep in her bed even when i kicked and squirmed. i love ash because she is so sensitive to others and has one of the kindest, most sincere hearts i know. she doesn't have a mean bone in her body and she's always looking out for every ones best interest. i love that she will rock out to teen pop and embrace it. i look up to her in more ways than she will know. she truly is a peacemaker and has more patience than anyone i know. she's hilarious and always makes me feel like i'm important and loved. we will always be ruth and silvia- the best of buds.


and last is naomi. although we aren't blood related- its no coincidence that she came to be a part of our family. i love that she always wants to help- she is willing to help out my mom and will be the first person to let hailey in the back door. shes taught me a lot about patience and has showed me how to love and forgive. she is the best letter writer and writes the most sincere and thoughtful notes. she has a soft spot in her heart for animals and is a friend to everyone she meets. im grateful for the blessing she is in my life and the opportunity its been to help me grow as a person.
im the luckiest sister in the world :)

"there is no friend like sister". unfortunately because you are the author of this beautiful writing your name wasn't mentioned as one of the great sister yourself! in the words of the wise songwriter cori connors "if it were not for you, i would not be who i am ... sisters!" you are very lucky to have each other and i am lucky to know you all!
I love what your wrote about each one of us... and I am so grateful that we have you (a much needed caboose) to make us laugh and to bring us all together. Thank you for sharing your love and talents... and for making me feel cooler than I am! Love you tons!!
