For Ailsa

 Today I think about my sister, Ailsa. I love her with everything that I have. She is one of the strongest women I know. She has lived through so many set-backs she could write not just a novel, but a series of them. I admire her gumption, her stick-to-it-iveness, and her optimism. I want nothing but great things for her, and wish I could swipe away all of her troubles. When good things happen to her, or for her, I am jubilant. When bad things happen to her, I want to fix them. In good times and in bad, I want to be there for her. To share in those moments with her, to laugh with her, cry with her, celebrate with her and mourn with her. I am blessed to have grown up behind her, to have learned from her, to be loved by her.

Having a sister is like having a best friend you can't get rid of.  You know whatever you do, they'll still be there.  ~Amy Li

Today, I honour my sister, please honour yours. WIthout Ailsa, my life would not be full enough. I love you Ailsa, yesterday, today and tomorrow.

Thanks for listening. I'll be back here soon.

 

xoxo
