I have always wished I had one or two sisters. Sometimes I meet women who don't like their sisters and I tell myself it's okay that I don't have sisters, what if I had sisters I didn't get along with? <br /><br />Just this summer I reconnected with a cousin I haven't seen or communicated with in 50+ years. I asked her how (and where) her sister was. She told me she had "lost track" of her sister. How does that happen? I quickly changed the subject, but thought about the sisters I don't have. <br /><br />Stories like yours remind me how special it can be to have sisters. How wonderful that you still get together and enjoy each other's company.The Noodlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00931727195407264781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4211773395857840723.post-23731128558509551432018-09-07T05:16:16.456-08:002018-09-07T05:16:16.456-08:00And I love this, too.

And I didn't want to focus on the perils of 3 (i.e., one feeling left out) because that isn't the story I want to hold onto. Besides, do brothers even laugh till they have to go to the bathroom?

But I only had brothers and it's a very different world, I'm afraid. <br /><br />Your stories usually let me inside with a connection; this story left me outside. I feel as if it's one of those stories when I'm not supposed to be in the room for the telling.<br /><br />Kinda like when you, me, anyone spends time checking a book out before buying; you ask yourself, "Would I want to spend hours with this story in my head?" I don't think I'd survive the car trip. I couldn't take all the laughter!<br /><br />I'll try to understand. I'll make it my own little effort at multi-expressionalism.Jacob Dugan-Brausehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06287631724339961459noreply@blogger.com
