This slightly stalkerish homage is actually a tribute to my sister. My younger sibling, and outside of my marriage, my best friend, we’ve been through a lot together, both good and bad. To all the mums and dads out there dealing with children who can’t stand each other, take courage, have hope: My mother once threatened to lock us in a room with two knives and not open the door till only one of us came out. She didn’t do it, of course, but we didn’t get along very well as children.
This is possibly the “thing†we’ll miss the most when we return to England: Day trips, outings and time spent with our favourite (and only) sister and aunty.
Thanks for joining us for our pic of the week
My oldest sister and I was like that. Now we talk on the phone almost every day. So strange the way time can change such things.
@One Rich Mother, Thanks ORM, yes, thankfully, otherwise I wouldn’t have one of my very best friends.
Visiting from Natural Parents Network!
Awww, I always love your collages! I was in a household where 2 older kids were tossed out the front door into the rain and told to duke it out until they had settled their differences.
Anyway, your post is a reminder of why we want to have another child. We don’t want our youngest to grow up as an only child.
@Momma Jorje, Thank you so much MJ. It’s always lovely to see your comments here too! I’m glad (and I’m sure my mom would be too) to know that it wasn’t just us! 🙂 You’re right though. It is why we want a second too!
LOL you and your sister sound like what me and my brother were like when we were kids!
@@simply_Hayley, very happy it’s not just us then! 🙂 Thanks as always for your comments!
