Siblings

"To the outside world we all grow old
But not to brothers and sisters.
We know each other as we always were.
We know each others hearts.
We live outside the touch of time."

I am so fortunate to have such amazing siblings. They are my best friends.

My brother, Jonny, lives in Australia and I miss him and love him very much. He is always there for me... Even now, when he is so far away.

My sister, Jenna, is home for the summer from school. She is very successful and I hope I can be like her some day.  Although we fight about things like stealing each others clothes, I love her to death.

I am so fortunate to have them in my life. I look up to both of them and feel that I have grown as a person because of the people that they have become. 

When they go off to school it makes me sad as I love having company around the house. When they come home the house goes from quiet and clean to messy and loud. Despite the mess I would always choose having them home and having a loud and messy house over a clean and silent one. 

When they are home a day does not go by without our Brady Bunch-like sing along. Jonny plays the guitar, Jen sings and I ...try to sing, even though I can't. Things like this, our inside jokes and their loyal and thoughtful personalities make me miss them more but also make me extremely excited when I hear that they are coming home.

I am so blessed to have such a strong relationship with two remarkable people.
