“Big sisters are the crab grass in the lawn of life.”
― Charles M. Schulz
I thought I would put a quote about siblings today. I found a picture today from Thanksgiving of 1971 and thought I would share it. I know that my brothers and sisters tormented me growing up. Well, not so much Julie and Shirley, but the rest did. Julie and Shirley just moved out,. I guess I really got upset with Julie moving out. I was to little to remember. It was mainly the three above me. Terri, Jeff and Steve who tormented me the most. They found all sorts of ways to do it. Hanging my stuffed animals by the curtain strings and locust shells on the light switches to name a couple. I won't mention how Terri caused me to have bad dreams because she tricked me into coloring on the walls. But, I wouldn't be who I am without them. At times, I wish Steven could experience it, but he wouldn't understand a lot of it. Steven did have a good day today and walked to class again!!! They said he had a good day all day. He wanted to take the laptop in today and I let him. He got to play it at 2:00. Which is their down time before they leave. So, he got Wendy's tonight. I didn't feel good today and didn't work out. Bryan didn't understand how bad I felt until he went to Guitar Center. I told him I would wait and not even go to Gordmans. Then he knew. Back to my siblings, I cherish each and everyone of them. I know that I am not as close as I would like to be, but growing up and having our own families can cause that. The best thing is that I know they are there for me come what may. I want to thank Julie, Shirley, Mike, Terri (yes even her), Jeff and Steve for being there for me and loving me.
I am behind on blessings, so here is a catch up.

Just look at Terri's face and ours, tell me she didn't cause all the problems at home. :) Also, no clue why the picture was taken at a funky angle.
