Black and White Wednesday ~ Sisters

Once again it is time for Lisa's Black and White Wednesday. I was going through some pictures the other day and came across the pictures of when Mylee met everyone for the first time at the airport. Mylee loves her big sister and has looked up to her from day one. Emma is a great big sister to Mylee. As soon as Emma walks in the door Mylee is running to her. Just the other day as Emma was walking in the door from school Mylee ran to her and said "Hi Emma, how was your day? What did you do today? I missed you." Emma got down on her knees and told Mylee all about her day.

Emma is such a big help with Mylee. If I need to get something done I can always count on Emma to occupy Mylee either by reading her a book, playing school, or whatever else they can find. When Emma has homework, Mylee will find her notebook, climb up next to Emma and do her "homework" as well.

Mylee and Emma share a room. Many nights I will go in to check on them before I go to bed and I usually find them in bed together. Just last night at 3:45 a.m. Mylee came in our room and the first thing she asked was "where is Emma?" I told her she was in bed and Mylee said "no, she not in her bed." Well, Emma had gotten in Mylee's bed last night and Mylee didn't even know it.

I look forward to watching these two beautiful girls share a lifetime of memories together. I know not every waking minute is going to be blissful, they will fight and they will become annoyed with each other. But, at the end of the day no matter how many tears may be shed, they are and will always remain sisters. As they get older the tears will turn into laughter and the fighting will turn into bonding. They share their secrets with one another, their hopes and dreams. They will share a bond like no other because they are SISTERS.




Meeting for the very first time~

The bonds of sisterhood are so sweet...even when they're ugly. :) My "sisters" love each other to death...and sometimes I think they WILL kill each other!...but they have such an awesome friendship! I can't wait to see how our newest "sister" will fit in with our crew! )
