Sisters

This is what is great about having four girls. Golda, at age 11, can teach Xanthe so much by just having fun with her. Golda has a lot going on, so it's nice to see that she still has time to curl Xanthe's hair and teach her how to glam it up. I hope the sister bond never falls by the wayside as the girls grow up and away. I hope the teenagers see the value in driving the little ones to their lessons and talking to them about grade school, even when that part of their lives is over and seems trivial. I hope they are there at each others' weddings, graduations, baby blessings, heartbreaks and joys, so that someday when their lives are full and rich, there will be someone to share it with who knows the road they travelled to get there. Someone who knows where they came from and where they hope to go. Someone who can help them get there and celebrate when they do. Girls, that is why sisters are important. Treasure each other.
