I have a sister...

Her name is Cami Anne. She's a beautiful, patient, kind, loving, creative, funny, organized wonder woman. In short, she's everything I could ever want to be and more.

Cami and I are 10 years apart- this is quite the gap. Although it has shrunk since I graduated from high school, got married, and shared 2 pregnancies with my sister, I still think we are close because she took the time to be a sister to me when I was going through all of my child and young adult awkwardness. Cami took me with her friends to haunted houses, game nights at the Eby's, and most importantly Walmart. (We will always have Walmart...) Although I proved myself annoying by dressing up in my high heels when I was 6 years old to see her prom date, Kirk, come pick her up, she still loved me.

And she still does. I look forward to our 4:30PM phone calls, Guitar Hero dates, and our crazy Saturdays catching soccer games, making crafts, and kissing our kid's owies. I never feel like we have enough time to spend together.

So, here's to you sister! Thanks for making me who I am, and inspiring me to be the woman I want to be. I love you.

I love this post. I know what you mean about there not being enough time for sisters! I'm jealous your lives in the state.

I have four sisters and love every one of them for different reasons.

That's the most beautiful tribute I think I've ever read about a sister. I only have 4 brothers, and always wanted a sister. I love my sisters-in-law, but you never have quite the same feeling as for a blood-sister. You are blessed indeed.
